"Both sides agreed to peacefully resolve the situation in the border areas in accordance with various bilateral agreements," the MEA said Sunday.
India and China, for now, will continue to hold further talks to resolve the ongoing confrontation in eastern Ladakh after the meeting between commanders of both armies on June 6 did not yield immediate results. The top commanders from India and China met in Maldo on the Chinese side, opposite Chushul.
Efforts are underway at both the military and diplomatic levels to resolve the problem in eastern Ladakh, where Indian and Chinese troops have been involved in military build-up along the Current Line of Control (LAC), the sources said.
A future date for new military talks will be announced as soon as both sides deliberate and decide, sources added.
India and China agreed to "peacefully resolve the situation in border areas in accordance with various bilateral agreements," the Foreign Ministry (MEA) said on Sunday. The statement was made a day after the much-discussed military meeting where India was represented by the 14th Corps Commander, Lt. Gen. Harinder Singh.
The talks were requested by India and were held at the Border Personnel Meeting Point in Maldo on the Chinese side of the Current Control Line (LAC) in East Ladakh.
"It took place in a cordial and positive environment. Both parties agreed to peacefully resolve the situation in the border areas in accordance with various bilateral agreements," the MEA said.
