Washington/UNI: US President Donald Trump on Thursday again said that the United States would very much like to help India and China reconcile their border dispute.
"I know that China now and India are having difficulty and a very substantial difficulty. Hopefully, they will be able to work that out. If we can help, we would love to help," Trump told reporters at the White House.
In May too, Trump had offered to mediate between India and China over the border issue which was refused by India.
India and China have been engaged into border standoff along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh since early May.
In a deadly clash in 40 years, at least 20 Indian personnel were martyred at Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh on Jun 15 night.
As per unconfirmed reports, at least 40 Chinese soldiers were killed but the Asian country did not disclose any figure in terms of casualties on its side.
