China has claimed control of the Galvan Valley in Ladakh, along with the Line of Actual Control (LAC). Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Xiao Lijian confirmed the news on Saturday morning. In its most recent series of tweets, China has claimed the Galvan Valley.
However, India had rejected the Chinese claims of the Galvan Valley. Confirming the news, Xiao Lijian tweeted, 'Gilan Valley is located on the Chinese side of the Line of Actual Control in the western part of the China-India border. For many years, Chinese border troops have been patrolling and on duty in the region.'
'Since April, Indian border forces have built unilateral and permanent roads, bridges, and other facilities on the LAC in the Gala Valley. China has represented and protested on several occasions, but India went even further and provoked the LAC to cross.'
'On May 6, Indian border troops crossed the LAC, revolted on Chinese soil, erected fortifications and barricades, preventing Chinese border troops from patrolling. They deliberately provoked in an attempt to change the status quo unilaterally,' he added.
Chinese border guards were forced to take the necessary steps to respond to the situation on the ground and to strengthen administration and control in the border areas. To reduce the situation, China, China, and India have been in close contact through military and diplomatic channels.
The Chinese spokesman added, 'In response to the strong demand of the Chinese side, India agreed to withdraw the crew crossing the LAC and demolish the facilities, and so they did.'
According to him, on June 6, the border forces met at the commander level and agreed to reduce the situation. 'India has promised not to cross the Galvan and the Galvan River basin to build Galvan and River facilities. The two sides will discuss and decide on a phased withdrawal of ground troops through officials.'
'Sadly, on the evening of June 15, in violation of the agreement, India's front line troops arrived at the commander-level meeting, when they once again deliberately crossed the Line of Actual Control for provocation. Gone when the situation in the Galan Valley was already easing, ' he said.
'Indias frontline troops even violently attacked Chinese officers and soldiers who had gone there for talks, sparking a serious physical altercation and loss of life. This Galvan clash is s a step-by-step statement.' he wrote in a tweet.
However, India rejected the Chinese claims of the Galvan Valley. Earlier this week, Indian spokesman Anurag Srivastava said the Chinese side had left by consensus to respect the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Galan Valley.
