Doklam standoff: Sushma Swaraj meets Bhutan counterpart in Kathmandu

This was the first high-level contact between the two sides since the beginning of the faceoff near the Sikkim border in mid-June. China has accused Indian troops of trespassing into Doklam or Donglang, a region which is controlled by Beijing but is claimed by Thimphu.

Swaraj and Dorji mainly focussed on the Doklam standoff, with their discussions centring round the positions taken by their countries on the issue and measures taken to end the face-off, according to diplomatic sources.

“We hope that the current standoff in Doklam will be sorted out peacefully,” Dorji said after the meeting. Both sides “should be satisfied from any of the outcomes”, he said without giving details.

India has said it acted in coordination with the Bhutan government to block the construction of a road by Chinese troops in the strategic Doklam region, located at the junction of the frontiers of India, Bhutan and China. The confrontation between Indian and Chinese troops is now in its second month.

Apparently Nasrallulah was a Arty lad attached to 641 mujahid Bn at Nezapir, met his fate at the hands of Indian Army.

ISPR can hide its casualties from Porkis but not from us.

Fake News: Chinese National Media on the Doklam Standoff


Some among China’s national media are trying to distort information and mislead Chinese nationals.

As the Columbia Journalism Review noted, fake news goes global today. China, where media outlets are under strict state control, is not an exception. In terms of the Doklam standoff between China and India, some of China’s national media — the Global Times in particular — has been trying to distort information and even incite local Chinese anti-India sentiment.

Since Indian troops tried to stop the Chinese Army from building a road in the Doklam area and the two countries settled into a standoff about 50 days ago, many Chinese media outlets have published aggressive rhetoric (as have Indian media, by the way). Besides notorious tabloids and social media, some among the state-run presses often viewed as Chinese government mouthpieces have also published sensational and distorted reports about the standoff.

A piece of this fake news puzzle is the way Chinese national media cites Indian media. As The Diplomat reported earlier, China’s Defense Ministry invited a delegation of Indian media on August 7. In the meeting, the Indian journalists had a face-to-face dialogue with high-level officers of the People’s Liberation Army. However, the defense ministry didn’t make information about the visit public to China’s domestic media. So the meeting was only widely reported by Indian media. Nevertheless, China’s national media has closely focused on the Indian press’ reports on China, especially on Doklam.


Immediately after reports about the Defense Ministry meeting appeared in the Indian press, China’s national media selected some information in the Indian reports and translated it into Chinese. The People’s Daily mobile version published an article — “A slap in the face! Bhutan acknowledges that Doklam is a Chinese area and finds it strange that the Indian troops are on the Chinese soil”:pound:– based on the report– “Bhutan acknowledges that Doklam is a Chinese area: Chinese official”– of Press Trust of India(PTI). It is apparent that People’s Daily intentionally deleted the most important part of the headline –“Chinese official.” Even in the article itself, People’s Daily downplayed the fact that the Chinese official is the only source of the information and highlighted the Bhutan part. :pound:In the end, People’s Daily even claimed that “Bhutan acknowledges that Doklam is a Chinese area” was widely reported by Indian media. Soon, the article was reposted by the Global Times (the most hawkish Chinese state-run newspaper) and grabbed attention there. It’s noteworthy that the Global Times is actually under the People’s Daily, although the staff are different. :pound:

Other than the above article, the Global Times has published or reposted other distorted stories, too. For example, on August 5, the Global Times cited another PTI report and produced an article: “Indian Prime Minister Modi spoke about Doklam, attempting to muddle through by dialogue.” On the same day, the People’s Daily mobile version refuted the Global Times’ article, pointing out that Modi didn’t speak about Doklam. :pound:

What’s most worrisome is that the Global Times intentionally incited anti-Indian sentiment. On August 9, after an earthquake struck China’s southwest, the Global Times published an article, claiming that “some Indian netizens said God sent earthquake to publish China” by quoting several posts on Twitter. :pound:

It is obvious that the Global Times found these posts by searching keywords of “China, India, earthquake” and it is highly questionable if all the remarks were posted by Indian netizens. In addition, Twitter is blocked by China’s Great Firewall so most Chinese netizens are not able to log on and double-check the information.


:rofl:No wonder even China’s Defense Ministry had to tell Indian journalists that some views reported by China’s hawkish government-run media (Global Times in particular) cannot represent the position of the Defense Ministry.:rofl:

interesting how china justifies attacking America when America is not posing any direct threat to china but trying to neutralize an escalated direct threat to American lives from NoKo.

:popcorn:
The thing is it is Global Times not Chinese government itself. Everybody treats them as an official voice for the country but this has proved to me that they are just spouting random nonsense.

I will be ignoring any post that quotes threats and/or Oped from these garbage Chinese news sources from now on.

Nasarullah as a trained artillery soldier probably called to the forward post to assist the irregulars Mujahid troops in accurate shelling on Indian posts.


But unknown to Nasrullah that a nasty surprise awaits him in form of portable artillery fire correction Radar used by Indian army at Forward LoC posts. The ELTA EL/M 2140
