Stanford: ‘India-China relations are complicated, it is not easy to improve them’, Rahul Gandhi told students in US
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said about India-China relations that India cannot back down under pressure from China. Relations between the two neighbors are complicated. They are not going to improve. Significantly, Rahul Gandhi has come to America for six days. He will visit three cities here. Meanwhile, he interacted with students at Stanford University in California on Wednesday night.
When a student asked him how do you see India-China relations developing in the next 5-10 years? To this, Rahul replied that the relationship between the two neighbors is difficult. It is not easy to repair them. China has occupied some of our territory. He further said that if China understands that it can weaken India, then nothing like this is going to happen.
Significantly, in June 2020, bilateral relations came under strain after the deadly skirmish in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh. India has said that bilateral relations cannot be normal until there is peace in the border area.
During a talk at Stanford University, Rahul Gandhi supported India’s policy of maintaining its relations with Russia despite pressure from Western countries. He said that we have a different relationship with Russia. We have some dependencies on Russia. Therefore, in this matter I am with the Government of India. He further said that India is a very big country, it has to look for opportunities for its own benefit. The former Congress President further said that it is necessary to maintain relations with other countries for progress. That’s why we will always try to maintain relations with everyone so that balance is maintained.
Earlier, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi reached America on Tuesday. He will visit three cities here. Rahul Gandhi was received at the airport by Indian Overseas Congress President Sam Pitroda and other members of the organisation. After interacting with students at San Stanford University, Rahul will address a press conference in Washington and hold meetings with lawmakers and institutions.
