Jayadev Ranade's article in the VIF



Very interesting, the chinese observers predict many skirmishes in the coming summer months and apparently the chinese "stance" has hardened from talks to hardcore ops in the summer to control land, skirmishes seem inevitable now. GoI has probably also realized this, that explains the reorganization of the army.

Jayadev Ranade is the foremost Chinese expert after having handled China desk in R&AW. He spends a lot of time reading Chinese literatures in their strategic circles. I believe what he says. Even before Galwan incident, he warned of Chinese sustained actions. Galwan was such one result and Chinese not withdrawing being the other. Despite him being long retired, his assessment was the most accurate.

It’s also true that if you want to understand Chinese mind and their thinking, it’s better to read Chinese scholars articles usually written in Chinese language in their military news/forums. Not Gobar times and rubbish.

Little correction- he spends most of his time in reading Chinese propaganda.

What a joke article from the Chinese !!

"The Behavioural Logic behind India’s Tough Foreign Policy toward China"

So the chinese are saying clash is happening due to hindu right wing nationalistic "forward policy" of india.

That Modi wants to stay in power and one way for that is to be tough on China ??

This is just standard propaganda , nothing else.

Anyone else remember the CCTV newclip that showned Indians building helipad in Galwan Triangle area ?

They said at the time , that was the reason for clash.

Just like India and Pakistan have two versions of history, so it the case here.

As our CAS said Never take what Chinese says at face value.

There are just two aspects of reading articles written by Chinese Scholars in their Think Tanks etc.

1. To understand their way of thinking or their version of the story.
2. To analyse their next move based on what they think.

This is exactly what MSS does. It uses Big Data, Gathers all articles written in XYZ country’s Strategic circle and analyse their next move.

While we all can rubbish those articles as mere ‘Propaganda’ meant for international audience but the fact is you don’t want to be fighting an enemy without knowing their thought process. That will be disastrous.

The word ‘Analysis’ in R&AW is meant for this very purpose.

Found this on reddit. This is the battle of Chinese carrier with Vikramaditiya.

Conflict with Tibet: China performs military air drill over Lhasa


According to a few experts, China is upset with the way the whole world has risen against the country. The Chinese are also scared of losing Tibet, which they have ruled with an iron fist for over 60 years now, reports the Indian news channel.


The exclusive photographs held by Zee Media clearly show that the Chinese military has performed a joint military drilled, where dozens of Chinese military helicopters and fighter jets flew over Lhasa.


A US-based think -tank last year claimed that labourers in Tibet are forced to join military-style training camps similar to the one built and run for years by the Chinese government in the western Xinjiang region.

A dissent from within is always good

on the burma bit, can happen why not. CCP is capable of giving more things to Burmese junta than GoI can ever give in the medium term during a democrat presidency.

True. You will find many rubbish as such. But for a difference read this article. It’s from 2017 but still hold true. It talks abt Chinese vulnerabilities in Tibet region vis-à-vis India.

Burma have categorically said that they will not allow anti india actions from their territory. Moreover, given their reliance on chinese hardware and criticism of junta from within .. they are moving away from chinese hardware to russian / european for weapons / platforms. I remember reading a recent news where they bought 5 or 6 used Airbus CASA C295 aircraft from jordan


IMO, burma will prefer to be neutral than siding with batmunchers if things go down that path. Nobody wants to be sandwiched between 2 SUMO wrestlers...

The unabashed manner in which the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) representatives went about meddling in Nepal’s domestic politics and the scaling up of Beijing’s interference in the landlocked country, is what is dangerous for India.
how good can a military be that is constantly looking to others to fight it's battles??
