China said ties with India and between the Armies have improved as a result of bilateral mechanisms put in place by both sides to bring down tensions over the disputed border after a video emerged showing Indian and Chinese soldiers involved in a standoff in 2013. “I have seen the report. The video showed something that happened several years ago.
We released information and clarified our position at that time,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying told a media briefing. She was replying to question about a video shown by an Indian television channel in which soldiers from both sides animatedly argued that the particular area in ladakh region where they stood belong to their respective countries.
