The MND: China and India Jointly Safeguard Peace and Tranquility in the Border Areas

10月31日下午，国防部举行例行记者会，国防部新闻发言人张晓刚大校答记者问。

记者：据报道，中印两国就中印边界巡逻安排达成协议，这有助于实现脱离接触，解决2020年以来的冲突。近日，印陆军参谋长称，印方希望边境局势恢复到2020年4月前状态，逐步恢复边境实控线正常管理。请问对此有何评论？

Question: It is reported that China and India have reached a deal on patrol arrangements in the border areas, which can lead to disengagement, ending a conflict began in 2020. India’s Chief of Army Staff recently said that India hopes to restore the border situation to the state before April 2020, and gradually resume normal management along the Line of Control. May I have your comment?

张晓刚：中印双方通过外交和军事渠道，已就边境有关问题达成解决方案，双方一线部队正在有序推进落实工作。习近平主席在俄罗斯喀山出席金砖国家领导人会晤期间，同印度总理莫迪举行双边会见，一致认为中印两国应该从战略高度和长远角度看待和处理中印关系，不让具体分歧影响两国关系大局。我们希望印方与中方相向而行，以两国领导人重要共识为指引，持续落实好上述解决方案，共同维护好边境地区和平安宁。

Zhang Xiaogang: China and India have reached resolutions on issues concerning the border areas through diplomatic and military channels. The frontline troops of the two militaries are making progress in implementing the resolutions in a orderly manner. President Xi Jinping met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the margins of the BRICS Summit held in Kazan, Russia. Both sides agreed that China and India should view and handle the bilateral relations from a strategic and long-term perspective, and make sure that differences on specific issues would not affect the overall bilateral relationship. We hope the Indian side will work together with China, take the important common understandings between the two state leaders as guidance, continuously implement the above-mentioned resolutions, and jointly safeguard peace and tranquility in the border areas.
