Delayering the SINPAK sandwitch

 

India's relation with China and Pakistan are strategically distanced apart. It would not be justified to compare the Sino-Indian relation with the Indo-Pak counterpart, where heinous and cowardly terrorist activities often play a vital role in destabilizing territorial integrity and peace.

Using Chinese goods is very much acceptable until and unless it is smuggled to India. In today's world, the cardinal factor that binds two countries is nothing but trade. Export and import of goods between any two countries helps in mutual development and is a must for developing economies.

Indian and China are two of the world's oldest civilisations and currently are two of the most rapidly growing economies of the world. Neither China, nor India can deny the fact that any armed operations between these two would be a lethal blow to one's own economy and will leverage the downfall of entire east over the western counterpart.

Bordering countries might have territorial tensions from time to time and it is almost inevitable. War should always be the last option to counter aggression and the maturity of armed forces of both India and China has shown the same in the not so old incident of Doklam standoff.

I hope to see a time when both India and China will rise with each other in solidarity and bring the whole of Asia as one unbreakable super-power.
