PENTAGON-LD INDIA 2LST

The report said: "The then governor of Arunachal
Pradesh announced that India would deploy more troops and
fighter jets to the area. An Indian academic also noted that,
in 2008, the Indian Army had recorded 270 border violations
and nearly 2,300 cases of 'aggressive border patrolling' by
Chinese soldiers".
China refers to its intervention in the Korean War
(1950-1953) as the "War to Resist the United States and Aid
Korea." Similarly, authoritative texts refer to border
conflicts against India (1962), the Soviet Union (1969), and
Vietnam (1979) as "Self-Defense Counter Attacks," the Pentagon
report said.
The Pentagon said Beijing remains concerned with
persistent disputes along China's shared border with India and
the strategic ramifications of India's rising economic,
political, and military power. PTI LKJ
