Beijing, Oct 24 (IANS) China on Monday slammed the US after its envoy visiting Arunachal Pradesh, warning it not to meddle in the border dispute between New Delhi and Beijing. After the US ambassador to India Richard Verma went to Tawang in Arunachal which abuts Chinese border, Beijing said such acts will make the dispute more "complicated" between the two countries and "sabotage" peace in the region.
China claims a huge chunk of India's northeast state Arunachal Pradesh, which it calls as South Tibet. Verma visited Tawang to attend a festival.
"It will only make the dispute more complicated, disturb peace and tranquillity of border areas and sabotage the peaceful development of the region," Lu said.
"We urge the US to stop interference in boundary issue between China and India and make more commitment to regional peace and stability."
Lu said the boundary issue between India and China was complex and sensitive and interference by a third party would heighten tension.
Lu maintained that China's position on the eastern sector was "clear and consistent".
"Two countries are now trying to resolve territorial disputes through negotiations and consultation. Any third party should have sense of responsibility and should respect efforts made by China and India for peace reconciliation and tranquillity rather than opposite.
"Behaviour of the US runs contrast to efforts by China and India," Lu said.
"At the end of the day, only the peoples of the two countries will fall victim. We believe India and China have the wisdom to properly handle the dispute," he added.

I had no idea these disputes existed. Having said that, it's pretty sad when a country has to explicitly tell the US to stay out of something.
We just can't seem to mind our own darn business. Perhaps we should close up shop and have a quick self improvement huddle for the next 4-8 years. Maybe try some yoga, or take up gardening...

That's an interesting border dispute. I don't know much about it. It's sometimes to easy to forget that there are disputes we don't generally hear about that exist as potential flashpoints for the unexpected international crisis or event. Heightened tensions between two very populous Nations both with nukes and a common border can't be a good. Any regional or world power should be interested in at least observing what is going on. However, I'm inclined to say that this is Chinese and Indian business at this point, we should observe but let them settle it between themselves.
