China is planning new military exercises in India

China has pledged to conduct more military exercises near the disputed border region amid escalating war of words with India.

"We will maintain our sovereign territory and security interests at any price", - told reporters on Monday the official representative of the Ministry of defense of China From Qian, adding that the people's liberation army "will intensify even more focused operations and training" around the neighborhood Declam.

India and China were in the weekly confrontation over a thin strip of land bordering both countries and Bhutan, in the Himalayas. Although it is not part of the territory of India, this area is close to the "chicken neck," strategic corridor that serves as a vital artery between Delhi and its far North-Eastern States.

Beijing has accused India of sending troops to Bhutan, while the Bhutan government claims that China had built a road on its territory "a direct violation" of Treaty obligations.

Dispute Zaklama began on 16 June, when China accused the Indian border guards in the North-Eastern state of Sikkim in the intersection of its territory in southwestern Tibet, trying to prevent the construction of new mountain roads. India denied that its troops were present in the area. According to a statement released by the Indian Ministry of external Affairs, Indian staff "came to the Chinese construction of the party and urged them to refuse to change the status quo."

Then followed a formal complaint of Bhutan that China is building on its territory. India and Bhutan have historically supported strong relationships and closely coordinate their foreign policy. The armed forces of India are also involved in the preparation of the armed forces of Bhutan.

China, which has no formal diplomatic relations with Bhutan, has repeatedly denied that he violated any agreements, and encouraged the participation of India in this question "completely unjustified".
