China has renamed 11 places in what India regards as its eastern state of Arunachal Pradesh, which China claims as part of its territory
China firmly opposes a visit by home minister to Arunachal Pradesh and views his activities in the area as violating Beijing’s territorial sovereignty, a foreign ministry spokesperson told a news briefing on Monday.
China has renamed 11 places in what India regards as its eastern state of Arunachal Pradesh, which China claims as part of its territory.
“Zangnan is China’s territory,” spokesperson Wang Wenbin said in response to a question on the visit by Indian Home Minister Amit Shah.
“The Indian official’s visit to Zangnan violates China’s territorial sovereignty, and is not conducive to the peace and tranquility of the border situation.”
China and India have had several skirmishes over the disputed border and clashes in mountainous regions in recent years have seriously strained ties.
