India and China Navigate Complex Relations Amid Border Disputes and Cooperation EffortsPreviousNext

India and China share a complex relationship marked by historical ties and current tensions, including unresolved border disputes and mutual suspicion. While China has shown disdain toward India, experts emphasize the need for trust-building through practical cooperation in areas like public health and climate adaptation. Both countries face challenges in balancing competition with collaboration, and dialogue across multiple channels is seen as essential to prevent rivalry from escalating and to foster constructive engagement despite differences.
