In response, Chinese Foreign Ministry<\/strong> spokesperson Lin Jian<\/strong> labeled the Pentagon\u2019s claims as “irresponsible”<\/strong>, accusing the report of attempting to create false narratives<\/strong> that aimed at sowing discord<\/strong> and bolstering US military supremacy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to Lin Jian<\/strong>, China views its relationship with India<\/strong> from a strategic perspective<\/strong> and remains focused on strengthening communication<\/strong>, trust<\/strong>, and cooperation<\/strong> between the two nations. He stressed that China<\/strong> was committed to managing differences<\/strong> with India<\/strong> through smooth communication channels<\/strong>, while asserting that the current border situation<\/strong> between the two countries is stable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The US report<\/strong> had claimed that China<\/strong> is capitalizing on the de-escalation<\/strong> of tensions along the Line of Actual Control (LAC)<\/strong>, where India<\/strong> and China<\/strong> have had territorial disputes for decades. The report indicated that China\u2019s primary goal is to stabilize bilateral relations<\/strong> with India<\/strong> and prevent further strengthening of the US-India relationship<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The report from the US Department of War<\/strong> also pointed out China\u2019s expanding military presence<\/strong> and its partnership with Pakistan<\/strong> in areas like defence<\/strong> and space<\/strong>. It raised concerns over China\u2019s consideration<\/strong> of setting up additional military bases<\/strong> in Pakistan<\/strong>, which Beijing did not directly address in its response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Chinese Defence Ministry<\/strong> echoed these sentiments, denouncing the report as a misrepresentation<\/strong> of China\u2019s national defence policy<\/strong>, accusing the US of interfering in China\u2019s internal matters<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the wake of the Pentagon’s accusations<\/strong>, Chinese Defence Ministry spokesperson Zhang Xiaogang<\/strong> warned that such reports distort China\u2019s defence policy<\/strong> and mislead<\/strong> the international community about the real nature of China’s military development<\/strong>. He also emphasized that the disputes<\/strong> over territorial claims<\/strong> such as Arunachal Pradesh<\/strong> and the South China Sea<\/strong> should not be used to fuel unnecessary tension in international relations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n China<\/strong> also reacted to US Defence Secretary<\/strong> Amit Shah\u2019s<\/strong> comments about US-India ties<\/strong>, asserting that such statements were intended to intimidate<\/strong> and create division<\/strong> between the two nations. Lin Jian<\/strong> concluded by stating that the US<\/strong> should refrain from further provoking confrontation<\/strong> and instead allow the countries in the region<\/strong> to manage their relations independently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The India-China<\/strong> relationship has become a focal point of geopolitical tension<\/strong>, with competing interests from global superpowers<\/strong> such as the US<\/strong> and China<\/strong> playing a significant role in shaping the dynamics in South Asia<\/strong>. Despite these challenges, China<\/strong> remains firm in its commitment to strategic diplomacy<\/strong> with India<\/strong>, aiming to maintain peaceful cooperation<\/strong> while dealing with its broader regional ambitions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" China has strongly rejected a Pentagon report that claimed Beijing is leveraging the reduced border tensions with India to undermine the growing ties between India and the United States.
