Beijing’s Defense Ministry has announced the organized disengagement of Chinese and Indian armed forces along the Line of Actual Control, the disputed border in the Himalayas.
An agreement was reached on Wednesday for the disengagement of Chinese and Indian troops at the mountainous border region between the two countries.
The decision came after the ninth round of the commander-level talks between Beijing and New Delhi. Frontline troops will begin to simultaneously disengage on February 10 following a year of heightened tensions at the Himalayan border which has seen numerous skirmishes and the buildup of military hardware on both sides.
