Chinese Army In Pakistan

China is seeking to set up more robust logistics facilities in about a dozen countries, including three in India's immediate neighbourhood, to allow the Chinese PLA (army) to project and sustain military power at greater distances, according to a Pentagon report.

New Army chief General MM Naravane said today that the armed forces were focusing on "capability development" in connection with the border with China and expressed hope that maintaining peace and tranquillity there will help arrive at an "eventual solution".

The United States on Tuesday designated those fighting Pakistani rule in Balochistan as terrorists after it carried out deadly attacks targeting Chinese interests.

India has rejected Pakistan police's charge that the country's external intelligence agency, Research and Analysis Wing or RAW, was involved in the November terrorist attack on the Chinese consulate in Karachi. The centre has rejected the accusation as "fabricated and scurrilous".

A "third country's" Army could enter Kashmir at Pakistan's request, using the "same logic" the Indian Army used to stop the Chinese military from constructing a road in the Doklam area in the Sikkim sector on behalf of Bhutan, an analyst at a Chinese think tank said.

Deep in the forests around the town of Vairengte in Mizoram, three soldiers of the Vietnamese Army are on the hunt for "terrorists". They approach their targets slowly, taking cover behind rocks before opening fire with Indian-made INSAS rifles. This could be a counter-insurgency operation anywhere in the world.

India should accept "olive branch" extended by a top Pakistani army general to join the USD 46 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, China's state-run Global Times said in an article on Friday.
