Indian News Media explains why Modi let PLA soldiers in LAC
PLA has chicken out and has retreated back almost 8km in Galwan alone. because someone in ground knew what's was about to come. PLA can do all the build-up on TAR and Xinjiang doesn't affect us at all. By the way @Mohsin77 what happen in Karachi last night? Look like Indian planes flew to close to Karachi
He explains the effect Indian news has on India's policy makers. They end up believing their own hype and make catastrophic errors in strategy. For example, he says that during the Doklam crises, Modi actually wanted to declare all out war on China, before CAG told him that India only has 20% of the required ammunition stockpiles for war against any country.
A couple of sane voices offering well researched information that can be confirmed academically, at least when it comes to the history of relations.
Perhaps offering a perspective on why China's taken Galwan valley.
Outside of some BJP controlled media outlets and some downright random liars (prevalent and totally ubiquitous in Indian politics) NOBODY is claiming PLA retreat. Even though PLA probably eventually will pull out so many boots on the ground from the Pangong Tso fingers. Leaving too many people there is risky but rest assured the initiative is not on India's side. Any Indian gains now at Pangong is totally made at the expense elsewhere. Use one hand to distract the enemy while the real movements are elsewhere come on you're meant to be somewhat better than this India lol. Eventually you can claim that PLA have removed soldiers from fingers 4 to 8 but our structures will be there as will our claim and any Indian incursion will be cut down again and again like your tied up and unconscious soldiers. You can market it as a victory all you want but it'll be putting lipstick on a pile of pigshit at that point. And everyone outside of the usual bhakts will see through it. Utterly embarrassing and more humiliating celebrating defeat than it is actually admitting defeat.
As for Galwan, we're keeping it and any talk is off the table. Want to play enemy with CCP Modi? You got it. lol it's pathetically simple and obvious. When you act like an enemy, there's no reason to treat you like you are not anymore. There's nothing to gain and everything to lose if PLA didn't take Galwan. 2018 Wuhan concensus was the last offer for stable relations and Modi the fool wanted to do things his way. Indians have been making Chinese their enemies since the turn of the millenia. Honestly there's nothing for China to gain by pretending it isn't. We may as well be working against India since that's what India's been focusing on with full attention for the last 20 years.
