India, China agree to hold talks on disputed borders – ministry

India said Wednesday it would host China for another round of talks on long-running border disputes. The Foreign Ministry said China’s special representative on borders would meet his counterpart in New Delhi on Friday for the 20th meeting on the unresolved “boundary question,” according to AFP. The two states have been arguing over their border since the 1960s when they went to war over the Himalayan territory of Arunachal Pradesh. Regular talks have been held since 2003, but disputes remain. This week’s meeting on borders is the first since India and China resolved a summer standoff in a different Himalayan region.
