The Sino-Indian border war was a war between China and India on the southern border of Tibet in June 1962 or October1year 10. In China, it is generally called the Sino-Indian border self-defense counterattack, and India is called the Battle of Warong (Battle
Walloon).
The Cuban missile crisis and this war broke out almost simultaneously.
Causes of conflict
The border between China and India is about 2000 kilometers, which is divided into three sections: west, middle and east.
195 1 or so, the Indian army expanded northward and gained about 90,000 square kilometers of territory south of the McMahon line. In addition, in the middle and west sections, India also occupies some disputed territories between India and China. 1959, the Indian army established 43 strongholds across the actual control lines of both sides. China's proposal to solve the border issue through negotiations has not been accepted by India.
China's point of view
The China government believes that the "McMahon Line" was set by the British themselves and has never been recognized by the China government. It is a part of the dismemberment of China by the West. Just like what Britain did between Pakistan and India. China refused to recognize the McMahon Line because it believed that it was the dividing line imposed on southern Tibet by the British colonial government. And until 195 1 years ago, the Indian government did not publicly recognize the McMahon line. So China said the disputed territory should belong to China.
Indian point of view
1947 After India became independent, India believed that they had the right to inherit the former British Indian territory. Therefore, they believe that the above-mentioned southern Tibet belongs to India.
International Perspective
The United States and the Soviet Union supported India and provided India with weapons and material assistance.
