China Engages in India Border Talks, Eyes US Cooperation

India and China are engaged in talks to manage peace along their border and restore bilateral ties frozen since the military standoff in eastern Ladakh. National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and Foreign Minister Wang Yi discussed disengagement and patrolling based on recent agreements between their leaders. Meanwhile, China is also focusing on its relationship with the United States, emphasizing dialogue and cooperation on issues like climate change, technology, and law enforcement. Despite ongoing tensions, efforts to maintain stability and expand cooperation are ongoing, as highlighted by recent financial and economic meetings. In light of Donald Trump's upcoming presidency, China hopes for a cooperative US-China relationship, despite Trump's past tough stance and proposed new tariffs on Chinese goods. Both nations acknowledge the global impact and potential achievements if they collaborate effectively.
