The US military's Defense Ministry Pentagon's top military commander, Admiral Philip S. Davidson, has made a big statement about the ongoing standoff in Ladakh. He has said that after the skirmish with the Indian Army, many of the areas that China occupied the LAC have not pulled out from the forward positions. Davidson said that the US has helped India in the border dispute by giving information and clothes and other equipment worn in cold areas.
Admiral Philip S. Davidson, who commands the US Indo-Pacific Command, told members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, "Many of the areas that the PLA occupied after the initial skirmish have not withdrawn from the advance fronts." He said that recent activities along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China made India realize what a collaborative effort with others could mean to meet their own defense needs.
Admiral Philip S. Davidson told the members, 'You know that India had long taken a position of strategic autonomy, non-alignment approach but I think the recent activities along the Line of Actual Control with China have made it understand What could mean a collaborative effort with others to meet their own defense needs. '
The Admiral said this while answering Senator Angus King's question. He said, 'We also offer some information to India at the time of crisis. Apart from these, some equipment etc. were also given and in the last several years, we are also intensifying our maritime cooperation. ' Davidson said that I think India will enhance its relationship with the four-nation alliance (Quad) and I think this is an important strategic opportunity for us, Australia and Japan.
