Now India is criticizing its neighbor China for invading the Kashmir region. Some people already foresee a war to control it might erupt at any time if they don't start any negotiations.
BBC Wrote:The reports say that in early May, Chinese forces put up tents, dug trenches and moved heavy equipment several kilometres inside what had been regarded by India as its territory. The move came after India built a road several hundred kilometres long connecting to a high-altitude forward air base which it reactivated in 2008.
The message from China appears clear to observers in Delhi - this is not a routine incursion.
"The situation is serious. The Chinese have come into territory which they themselves accepted as part of India. It has completely changed the status quo," says Ajai Shukla, an Indian military expert who served as a colonel in the army.
Even Nepal claimed India wants to annex Nepali territory to build a road to China. Meanwhile, China says the Galwan Valley is Chinese not Indian. Besides India stated Ladakh includes Aksai Chin region, but China controls it.
Keep in mind that India and Pakistan were not separate countries in the past. Under British rule, India was much larger than nowadays. Its territory included Pakistan and Bangladesh for instance. Now Pakistan lends its Gwadar port to the Chinese, letting the latter get access to the Arabian Sea.
I foresee their use of your girl to help rally their troops.

Trump understood they needed some reforms but didn't succumb to protester's demands on defunding or dismantling the police, which was a huge nonsense anyway.
I guess a database for police abuses might help track those evil cops down while some district attorney finishes collecting enough evidence as to request a trial at the court.
Not only the database, but he also stated there would be no 'shuffling aside' one of these moron cops to another district to hide them. Yeah, bad cops won't be given sanctuary after embarrassing the station. AND of course, no choke holds unless the officer is in dire threat.
