Since the spring, India and China have been locked in a tense standoff in Ladakh
Global Times
, a plateau to the west of Tibet . India has accused the PLA of massing forces, building outposts and nibbling territory at several points along the Line of Actual Control , the disputed and hazy demarcation line that serves as a frontier in the absence of an agreed international border. In June the two sides agreed to disengage. Days later a deadly but gun-less brawl took place at the Galwan river valley.
The raid at Chushul was notable because India used its Special Frontier Force , a Tibetan-manned unit originally established in 1962, after a war between India and China, with help from America’s CIA. China invaded Tibet in 1950 and crushed an uprising there in 1959, which led to the flight to India of tens of thousands of Tibetans, including the Dalai Lama. Their presence in India has been an irritant to bilateral relations ever since.
The pair also appear to be locking horns well beyond Ladakh. On September 2nd India banned 118 Chinese apps, including a hugely popular video game, China’s leading search engine and its most widely used digital-payments system. It had already banned 59 others, including TikTok and WeChat, after the June clashes.
