China: India
- Question
-
Her Majesty's Government what discussions they have hade with the government of India and the government of China to help to defuse current tensions on the Dolam Plateau.
- Answer
-
We are monitoring developments in the Doklam region closely. The Minister for Asia and the Pacific raised it with the Indian High Commissioner on 19 July, and UK officials have recently discussed it with the Government of China. Both expressed concern and the UK's hope that India and China reach a peaceful resolution.
We call on all parties to exercise restraint and ensure channels of dialogue remain open as a means to resolving differences.
