Doklam Dispute: India reacted to key agreement between China and Bhutan

New Delhi: China and Bhutan were at loggerheads over the border in Doklam near Sikkim. Bhutan had opposed the road being constructed by China, which India had also openly supported. The dispute between Bhutan and China also led to tensions between India and the Dragon. Bhutan and China have now signed an agreement to resolve the dispute.

Bhutan and China have signed a three-phase roadmap to expedite talks to resolve the border dispute. It may be recalled that the Armies of India and China had been facing each other for 73 days at the Doklam tri-junction. At that time, India supported Bhutan's claim. Bhutan had accused China of expanding a road in the region that is its territory. According to media reports, India has now responded balancedly to the signing between China and Bhutan. Replying to a question, External Affairs Ministry spokesman Arindam Bagchi said talks have been going on since 1984 to resolve the border dispute between Bhutan and China. India is similarly negotiating the border with China.

However, Arindam Bagchi did not respond to a question of whether the Bhutanese government had informed India about the deal. He must have said that agreements have been reached between the two countries in many places over the ongoing standoff with China in Leh Ladakh. Earlier, Bhutan's Foreign Ministry had issued a statement saying that Foreign Minister El Tandy Dorji and China's Deputy Foreign Minister had signed an agreement on a three-phase roadmap for border talks on Thursday.
