India-China border standoff: WMCC to meet today

| @indiablooms | Aug 20, 2020, at 07:44 pm

New Delhi/UNI: The Working Mechanism for Consultation and Coordination (WMCC) on India-China border affairs will hold a meeting on Thursday to deliberate on disengagement and de-escalation process in the eastern Ladakh.

The meeting comes amid the military dialogue between Corps commanders of two Himalayan nations hitting a roadblock following Beijing’s reluctance to restore status quo ante in some key friction areas along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.

The outcome of the WMCC meeting is likely to determine, when the senior commanders could meet next.

The last WMCC meeting was held on July 24 after there was a report of slowing down of disengagement process.

It would be the 17th Meeting of the Working Mechanism for Consultation & Coordination on India-China Border Affairs.

Five rounds of top-level military talks were held to break the deadlock following serious differences between India and China that flared up after transgressions by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) this summer.
