New Delhi : After the border agreement between India and China, hopes for further improvement in the relations between the two countries have increased. India and China have made ‘some progress’ towards withdrawing troops. Soldiers of both the countries have retreated in Demchok and Depsang. Joint patrolling has started. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has described this development as a ‘welcome’ step. In response to a question, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that we have made some progress in the context of India and China. You know our relationship was very bad for some reasons. We have made some progress in the withdrawal (of the troops).

Other steps can be taken

The Foreign Minister said that a large number of Chinese troops are deployed along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), which were not there before 2020 and in return we also made counter-deployment. Other aspects of relations have also been affected during this period. So clearly, we have to step back and see in which direction we move forward. But, we feel that the step back is a welcome step, Jaishankar said. This opens the possibility that other steps can also be taken.
