India asks China to avoid Ladakh airspace violations

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ India and China held a special round of military talks on Tuesday at the Chushul-Moldo border meeting point in Eastern Ladakh to discuss air space violations and provocations by the Chinese side in that area in the last 45 days.

The talks were held after the Indian Air Force sternly countered the Chinese attempts to provoke in the Eastern Ladakh sector by violating air space and the confidence-building measure lines which mandate that both sides should fly fighter planes within 10 km of the Line of Actual Control.

“During the military talks, the Indian side strongly raised objections over the Chinese flying activities near Eastern Ladakh sector for over a month now and asked them to avoid such provocative activities,” government sources told.

The talks have also come at a time when the Chinese are having tense relations with multiple countries including the United States over a high-profile American visit to Taiwan and its firing of ballistic missiles in the Japanese Exclusive Economic Zone. The talks between the two sides included Air Force officers from both sides along with Army representatives.
