Topic: India-China border tensions (Read 1159 times)

That is how they show their power and capability in the whole world. They are also moving slowly based on their plan, which includes having a share in some countries. They really are powerful and advanced in everything not just the technology. That's also my guess, they might might other nations next sooner or later.

Been noticing this a lot too, it seems like China is bullying everybody else, I've read lately about the tension in the south China sea near in the Philippines where China already built an artificial island, the equipment was brought by their warship simply not to be interfered in the sea while traveling. Then there's this tension in the Indian border,  I do feel like China wants something to happen. They first entered a trade war between US, something is really happening.

This is not impossible to happen, but I think China is so smart about these things, they keep dwelling by the book that's why a war isn't surging yet, once they got off the book then let's expect something bad to happen.

It is quiet through that the conflict can have an impact on the international trade but I do not understand how it will affect cryptocurrency because crypto is not like goods and commodity that is being traded or transported from one country to the other and the last time I checked trading crypto in india is not considered illegal. So far it is not being banned (crypto), the tension does not have impact on the cryptocurrency trading except otherwise.

China is basically taunting the whole world about their power nowadays. They are very strong both in military but everything else as well. I just read about them like "Nazis that are more advanced in technology" and that is basically a correct explanation on what they are doing. First it was their own people they took, next it was the Muslims in their nation that they took and now they are attacking other nations.

By the most logical thing, if they keep attacking other nations like this such as India, Hong Kong and other places, eventually there will be a response from all over the world. The world usually doesn't care what you do in your own nation even if you kill tens of millions of people because it is your own nation so why should we care but the moment you set out of your borders, it is a war.

Being a native of North-east India, I would say that even the Chinese don't take their claims on Arunachal Pradesh seriously enough. It is mostly used to counter Indian claims on Aksai Chin (Chinese controlled part of Kashmir). The natives there have no similarities with the tribes in Tibet, and they mostly use Hindi for inter-tribal communication. The dispute is mostly regarding Ladakh, and at least for now, Arunachal issue is not being raised frequently.

I am not surprised to know of the dispute between India and China, because China does have the desire to dominate all things.
So it's no wonder there are border tensions, of course if this is allowed to affect international trade. Especially China indeed
control of the world economy, this might be used by America to provide support for India. And proven from the last news I read
India began to approach America. For cryptocurrency, fortunately, until now there was no influence.

Yes, International trade and crypto currency can be affected go slow for this. Both have nuclear weapons so there is no chance of war against them. So they will go for negotiation later after situation gets easier.

The Chinese version of the LAC mostly consists of claims in the Ladakh region, but China also claims Arunachal Pradesh in northeast India. In the demands of these two provinces it is creating a tense atmosphere between China and India.I think the trouble these two countries could have an impact on cryptocurrency.

The problem isn't the US or China, it's the imbalance of power. Big/rich countries bully and exploit small/poor countries. Before the US and China were superpowers, we had the British Empire robbing, killing and enslaving across the globe. India/Pakistan tensions are largely due to the bungled partition when Britain left. Similar in Africa with Belgian withdrawal, most infamously Rwanda. Look at the behaviour of Russia towards smaller East European nations. Also we had Britain and France carving up the Middle-East between them - much of the instability in that region can be traced back to the infamous Skyes-Picot Agreement between these two powers. Go back further and we have the Spanish conquest of South America. And on and on through history.
The US and China are the most belligerent actors on the world stage at the moment, but this is not due to anything intrinsic to their natures or their societies, it's simply a disparity of power between them and everyone else.

India/China is notable and making headlines primarily because India is a big and highly populated country. Both antagonists would take a lot of damage in an all-out conflict, which is why I think it will be avoided, and outright hostilities will remain limited to brief skirmishes. However one issue that may become more prominent in the Himalayan region, and may lead to escalation, as I've mentioned before, is that of water...

What is the difference between what is done by the United States in many countries? The goal is the same and the way is also similar. China uses the economy while America uses thuggery. Sometimes I think of what the world would look like without the US and China. Who would be the ruler of the world if there was no US? China wants to be a big country more because it wants to provide food security and welfare for its jumbo community in the midst of a world that is lame and exploited by a group of countries and groups of people.


China can not shift the US as a superpower, China is an only great power. India is only used as a proxy so that the US can make a mess with China. Even if China does not continue to fight with the US, of course, there are offers from the US or China or rather Trump with Xi that benefits both parties.


On a personal view, this is a cheap move from China because when everyone is suffering from a pandemic that was started by how you can even think of attacking countries that are facing trouble started in China itself. "

The virus did start because it spread in China, but that does not mean that China is responsible for the origin of the Coronavirus. Besides, don't be too naive, everything that happens in the world between these countries always starts with diplomacy and bargaining, and the majority of cases require "go ahead" from the superpower. India gave China a reason to attack India because India made military alliances with the US, Japan, and Australia. If India uses free and active politics and does not lean to the US, surely China will not be reactive. The colonial experience experienced by China and nationalism as a large and superior nation created a special mindset in seeing threats.

It could be a drama of two actors with one storyline.

Few months back i was reading about civil riots in the streets in India and many people dying protesting about some law that is introduced targeting minorities and if they had a leader who is capable they would have sorted the issues inside before venturing outside. Not aware of the extend of the issues between China and India but i am sure it is border issues and that will not lead to any war as both are nuclear powers and if i am guessing right China is having more weapons of mass destruction than India.

That's the exact same point of view I've been putting in front of people, and even being criticized for thinking like that. I mean, how stupid of China to attack a place they've made billions from? Like they're trying to cut the hen all at once and don't want her to give a golden egg every single day. I'm from India myself and I know how badly it hurts when you see your soldiers dying because of those who are already guilty in the eyes of the whole world atm. Instead of pleading everyone and asking for forgiveness, China is trying to show off its powers but remember, we've got the best army available here in India and it doesn't matter whatever games China will play from their end during this pandemic season, they'll just be beaten down on their face if they try to make a war here.

I think this might be the worst time for China to attack India because they have a capable PM and they are already taking strong steps like banning of various Chinese apps which already influence the china market and if the tensions continue to rise it would actually cost a lot more to china than it would to India because china is a massive exporter to India and makes a hefty revenue through their products while there is hardly any exports from India to china across borders so I believe while China is way to stronger than India but the war would actually benefit no one.

On a personal view, this is a cheap move from china because when everyone is suffering from a pandemic that was started by you how can you even think of attacking countries that are facing a trouble started in china itself.

On top of having cold relations with neighbors they are also having bad time with USA and other European countries as Trump often calls corona virus as Chinese virus which looks comedic but that tells you how bad he thinks and feels about China already and in case of a war right now I think India might not win but given the support they might possible get from other nations might at least help them destroy a large part of China if even not winning.

We do need to understand that China is a super power both economic wise and military wise so it is wrong to actually think that India would even come close to winning a battle against them but then even significant damage done to China might be not worth the war for them.

Sovereignty is important for any nation, no doubt about its importance.

Nevertheless, I don't like what China (Chinese governments, specifically) says lies and make stupid drama for their sovereignty. They have full rights to protect their sovereignty but they should do this on what belong to them only. Indeed, they make drama and want to take over everything they can. They don't respect international laws that they signed in long time ago. They don't respect their neighbors. Everything

There is a possibility that war could be a solution to the weakening of the Chinese economy if China copied exactly what Germany did after losing World War I or imitated what America did by engaging in World War II. If China sees war as a project and conducts economic at war then war as a solution for China's interests in the Asian region. What Xi did with Hong Kong was proof that sovereignty was a fixed price for China.

   CryptoYar it's good that is finished, war on that scale would affect entire world, you are totally right about that. Both countries
are with huge population, strong economies, China is stronger here, but have nuclear weapons. I would want to see war on that
scale.
    I don't think that that war would affect crypto-currencies. Countries and people would suffer, but probably many people from
there would look at crypto-currencies as a safe-heaven, something neutral. And no matter how big war is, some people would find
a way to continue with business, and crypto-currencies would help them in that.

My friend, it was a little fight on the border which is now finished off, If it were a direct war, the issue would have been for the whole world, and not only the crypto currency, the economy of the whole world had to fall apart because India and China are very big countries.

Check the economy of both these countries.

Yes war breakout can be a problem for cryptocurrency as Op asked. I think that the border thing is not a big problem, that is all about the struggle for relevance, dominance and control of the region. It has not much to do with cryptocurrency at the main time.

From what i read and understand the tensions between China and India were not prevalent for decades and only recently there is some sort of border issue between both these nations, they had a full blown war more than four decades earlier when none of them were having nuclear warheads and now things have changed and both have massive nuclear warheads and if both these countries starts provoking each other then we might see a full out war and the rest of the countries joining either sides, but i am certain that the international body will find a solution for their aggitation and sort them out amicably.
