The Chinese government is planning an incident in Galwan, a senior US panel said

 

The Chinese government has "planned" the June Galwan incident as Beijing intensified its years-long campaign against its neighbors, sparking a military or military conflict with countries from Japan to India, a senior US official said in a statement released Wednesday.

A few months after Galwan's feud that led to the brutal killing of 20 Indian soldiers, the United States-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC) in its report '2020 Report To Congress of the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission' said, " Other evidence suggests that the Chinese government planned the incident (Galwan), which may have added to the death toll. "

 

The report read, "In June 2020, PLA and Indian forces entered a major conflict in the Galwan Valley, located west and west of Ladakh near the Line of Actual Control (LAC) that divides the two countries. The LAC, which led to the deaths of at least 20 Indians and an unconfirmed number of Chinese casualties, for the first time since 1975 that war was lost in a war between the two sides.

"Beijing has intensified its long-running campaign against its neighbors, fueling military or military alliances with countries from Japan to India and Southeast Asia. Shortly after Chinese Defense Minister urged Beijing to use troops to stabilize its territory, violent clashes between China-India border in June has led to the first loss of life between the two countries since 1975, "the church said.

Quoting Tanvi Madan, an official at the Brookings Institution, the report said, "According to Dr. Madan, if China's goal in its actions was to" find a place ... [the Chinese government] can see that these measures are successful ". Beijing aims to prevent India from building infrastructure on its side. of the LAC or to warn it against the United States, however, "what the Chinese are doing would not work, if not disputed."

"Some evidence indicates that the Chinese government planned the incident, including the deaths, for example, a few weeks before the war, Secretary of Defense Wii made a statement urging Beijing to" use the fight to improve stability, "the report said.

Citing another incident before the Galwanan war, he said, "Just two weeks before the incident, which could indicate that Chinese leaders are expressing their intentions to escalate tensions, the editor of China's state-run Global Times has warned that India will face" serious "trade ties with China. was involved in "American and Chinese conflicts." Satellite images show a large Chinese base in the Galwan Valley, including 1,000 PLA ​​troops, just a week before the accident. "

The US executive council said that although both countries had "many conflicts over their borders" but "since Secretary-General Xi took office in 2012 these countries have seen five major conflicts on their borders". "The exact reasons for the Chinese government's conduct in the LAC this year are not yet clear."

Chinese and Indian troops have been fighting since early May near the LAC east of Ladakh.

The situation in the LAC deteriorated in June following the Galwan Valley conflict in which both sides suffered injuries.

Twenty Indian soldiers lost their lives during the ongoing violence on June 15-16. It is the result of an effort by the Chinese military to unilaterally change the status quo in the eastern part of Ladakh.
