India-China Border conflict

[Jimih]

From a Sri Lanka pov, they should be using both India and china for their gains and balance between the two

What balance?

They are submerged in Chinese debts from toe to head.

This is the way they can pander China in going slow on them.

But we should slap ourselves that ipeven in this condition they are effectively causing us troubles

They are dead snake for a long time. They are just burning the goodwill for some time. After some years there will be no goodwill and no help.

According to the Ministry of External Resources of Sri Lanka, as of 21 April 2021, the external debt of Sri Lanka totalled US $57 billion, which was composed of 47% borrowings from the international capital market, 13% from the Asian Development Bank, 10% from China, 10% from Japan, 9% from the World Bank, 2% from India and 9% others.

Stop faking with statistics and photoshopped images just like this:

So C-17 can operate from this airport?

All IAF aircrafts can comfortably operate from this airport.

Another Logistic point has been added. Still the Trans AP Road is pending for long time. Constructing them will give major upgradation in terms of border infra.

Ladakh- Altitude only
Arunachal Pradesh- Altitude + dense Forest

Trans highway is an engineering challenge, will have to overcome this.

Something pretty interesting is happening in Ladakh, both sides are maintaining troops' presence very close to the border, and this is increasing every year.

Normally, the pattern is by end of Oct as the winter sets in, troops return back to the main HQs for the respective sides, which is Xinjiang/Chengdu for China, and J&K/mainland India for us.
This year, not only both sides are maintaining ~2 division strength permanently close to the border (within ~100 km), but the build-up has increased instead of decreasing like every year.

So this has become a competition of who can militarise the LAC with greater strength. Currently, China is winning, but only narrowly. Whenever and wherever China will see a clear advantage, it will mount the next military operation.

It is to note that, China won't be aggressive in areas, even cooperative where we have 1:1 or better parity with them. In areas where they have 2:1 or 3:1 parity, they conduct probing incursions or minor non-aggressive standoffs to check our preparedness and response. While, areas where they have 5:1 or greater parity, will be met with aggressive advances, incursions, and even major physical fights by the Chinese.

@mokoman

One biggest flaw in this logic for Chinese is their assumption that we will fight them where they choose.

The border is very long and there is sea to be considered.
So, While Chinese may attack us at the place of their choosing, the battle will extend to places of India's choosing as well.

poor guy has nothing to post . so according to him doklam "conflict" hasnt ended.

 

[hit&run]

Ignore Sinophiles, we are done away with this carefully planted blackmail, what if Sri Lanka falls into the Chinese lap?

What we here at DFI must discuss and I am soon going to create a thread on Indian military jumps into the Jaffna peninsula and other amphibious entry points before discussing air and naval operations enforcing not only blockades but punitive strikes of their key military and civilian strategic area which they may use against invading Indian forces.

I will request members to help and gather maps of their last military operations against LTTE and other insurgencies.

SL can fuck fall into anyone's lap.

 

[Bharatiya]

We gave Lanka food and oil and got a spy submarine in return. Niceties won't get us anywhere. Only be more ruthless, cold and calculative.

Buy up the Sri Lankan politicians, control the political narrative. Instead of working aggressively, GOI is being passive. Appeasement never works in the absence of Punishment.

I hope GOI is taking the steps to install a pro-India govt. Except India, no country will allow this much anti-Indian narrative in its neighborhood. This isn't "tolerance" or "magnanimity" but utter incompetence at best and cowardice at worst.
