Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh’s Explosive Statement
Hello, welcome to Warfare News Now, recently the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh, Pema Khandu sahab, has given an explosive statement during an interview. I mean, such statements, such comments. I would say that I remember many times when I have made a video on China-Tibet, I kept watching it and someone kept commenting below, and it used to have 5-6000 likes that we share a border with Tibet, we do not share a border with China.
Arunachal CM Denies Border With China
, today we are seeing that the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh is making similar type of comments. And let me tell you that it seems clear that there is going to be a large-scale dispute between India and China over the Tibet issue. Here you will see that the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh was asked that Arunachal Pradesh shares a 10 km long border with China and there are a lot of problems on this border. Immediately the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh said, “Hold on, let me correct you, this question itself is wrong, we do not share borders with China, we share borders with Tibet. Officially I know Tibet is under China today but we cannot rule out Tibet.”
Arunachal Shares Border with Tibet, Not China
Basically, you can see our border in history, it touches Tibet and then he further emphasized his point and said that Arunachal Pradesh shares an international border with only three countries. These three countries are Bhutan, 150 km border, Myanmar, on the eastern side there is a border of around 550 km between Arunachal Pradesh and Myanmar and then we have a border of more than 1000 km with Tibet. It is a very big thing to give this statement openly.
CM Recommends Bharat Ratna for Dalai Lama
After that he gave another statement that Bharat Ratna which is India’s highest civilian honour should be given to the Dalai Lama. China will obviously be very angry after hearing all this. And now I think you know if you see, Kiran Rijiju Sahab has recently given a statement related to the Dalai Lama. The statement of the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh matters a lot.
Potential India-China Showdown on Tibet
If Jaishankar Sahab or PM Modi gives some more such statement, let me tell you that suddenly you will see a very big showdown in India-China relations. I am already seeing that the Chinese Embassy in India is getting furious. They are constantly commenting that look, some people are commenting on Tibet and the Dalai Lama today. It is not allowed to make such comments. It is not allowed. These people speak as if China’s law is applicable all over the world.
China’s Reaction to Tibet Comments
Here you people will be able to see. This statement is from China’s spokesperson. The spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in India commented that he recently noticed that some people in the media have made irresponsible remarks about the Dalai Lama. This has been done because they do not have a proper understanding of this issue and they do not have a proper understanding of China.
Dispute Over Dalai Lama’s Reincarnation
Then further here it says that the Dalai Lama is not an authority who will decide whether the reincarnation system will continue or be abolished. Because recently you will know that the Dalai Lama had commented that in future when the Dalai Lama will be born, when reincarnation will happen, where will he be born, Gaden Podrang Trust has been given the responsibility to decide where the next Dalai Lama will be. They have basically snatched the authority from the Chinese government.
Next Dalai Lama Could Be Born in India
And let me tell you clearly what is going to happen in the coming times is that the next Dalai Lama will most likely be born in India, there are chances that he may be born in Tawang. The US, Indian government and various European countries will support. China will be very angry with the new Dalai Lama and there will be a lot of uproar over it.
Future India-China Tensions
Let me tell you that the coming few years will be very difficult for India and China relations. Obviously Vladimir Putin will try to bring the situation under control because it is very important for Russia that relations between India and China improve and a RIC group emerges – Russia, India, China. I don’t think Russia will be able to succeed in the issues that are being created. But again Russia will try very hard.
China Renames Tibet as Shazang
So the Chinese spokesperson had commented here that this reincarnation of the Dalai Lama should be done according to Chinese law regulation etc. The Indian government has made a political commitment to China. Regarding the Shazang area. Now they don’t even call Tibet as Tibet. They call it Shazang. They have changed the name of Tibet. And I feel sad about this. Our previous government, whether it was during Jawaharlal Nehru’s time or Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s time, there is no right wing leftism in it.
India’s Past Mistakes in China Policy
The mistakes we have made in the past are against China without any reason, you know at least you play a game. You give competition, you don’t give free points to your opponent without any reason. Now today China openly says that India has made a political commitment to China. Regarding Yazang related issues. It is hoped that the media friends respect China’s core interest and major concerns. I mean even if it gets published in the media, even then these people say that they will not tolerate it.
India, US, and Tibet Issue
Most likely they will not like my video also. But regarding the issue of Tibet and the Dalai Lama, it seems that two countries will stand against China. First is the United States of America. Second is India. Let me tell you that India and the US together are going to play a very important role in the issue of Tibet.
US Increases Tibet Funding
The US has recently restarted the funding of six to seven million dollars for Tibetans. It is being told that there are many people in Donald Trump’s government who are saying that the US funding for Tibetans should be increased by several millions of dollars and the money that is now saved from US aid which was being used unnecessarily to spread democracy in India or elsewhere should now be spent here on the issue of Tibet.
Taiwan Supports Tibet Cause
So you will see this. This will very much happen. And another country is standing with India and the US. That country is Taiwan. Recently Dalai Lama sahab’s birthday came. Only three countries officially congratulated him on his birthday. The first country was the US, the second was India, then Taiwan.
Taiwan’s Changing Stance on Arunachal Pradesh
I think a long time ago I had said in a video that Taiwan also believes that Arunachal Pradesh is a part of the overall United China. Because the government in Taiwan says that it is the actual real China. The communists have just occupied what is currently China’s land. So look, Taiwan does not have as much fanatical claim on Arunachal Pradesh as Communist China has.
Taiwan Grants Scholarship to Arunachal Student
Actually, recently you will see that Taiwan has shown flexibility in its position on Arunachal Pradesh. For example, let me tell you that this year a student from Arunachal Pradesh got a scholarship from Taiwan’s Ministry of External Affairs. So, I often see some Indians commenting here and there in an attempt to appear more knowledgeable. Do you know that we cannot even trust Taiwan? Taiwan also says that Arunachal Pradesh is ours.
Importance of Understanding Geopolitical Context
Look, understand the geopolitical contact. If you do not have proper knowledge, you do not understand properly what the geopolitical equation is? So for once I would say that it is better to say no.
India Must Unite on Foreign Policy
And if I talk from Indian perspective, I think that the support for Dalai Lama is going to happen most likely in the future when the current Dalai Lama unfortunately does not survive, then according to me, when his reincarnation will happen, reincarnation will happen, the whole of India will have to come together for that. We have seen in Operation Sindoor that some people were saying different things etc. We will have to stop all this.
Unity Is Essential Against External Threats
As a country, when it comes to foreign policy, we must stay united. If the right wing becomes left wing, then the matter will get worse. Look at any country, a great country that has achieved something, when it comes to foreign policy, when it comes to dealing with a big challenge, then all the countrymen come together. At that time, political points were not scored.
India’s Tibet Strategy Moving Forward
So this statement of the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh is a beginning and in the coming times, you will see that China will face a lot of pressure regarding the issue of Tibet. It has no relation with terror. It is a grand strategy. Barack Obama, Biden, Donald Trump are all moving forward in a uniform manner. It is possible that Trump may carry it forward more aggressively. This is the difference I see.
High-Level India-US Cooperation Expected
You will see India and US’s cooperation on Tibet at a very high level in the next few years. Some updates obviously come related to this topic, I will keep bringing updated content for you.
