Relations between India and China have been in an “abnormal state” since the 2020 Galwan clash and it is a “possibly longer than medium-term issue”, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said here.
If the two biggest countries of the world have that degree of tension between them, “it has consequences for everybody else”, he asserted during a conversation at the Council on Foreign Relations to a question about India-China relations.
“You know, one of the pleasures of dealing with China is that they never quite tell you why they do things. So you often end up trying to figure it out. And it’s always, there’s certain ambiguity out there,” Jaishankar said.
