Let me tell you that on the night of June 15, a team of Indian Army went to talk to the Chinese Army at Petroling Point-14 of Galvan Valley in Ladakh. During this time, Chinese soldiers sitting ambush attacked the Indian Army contingent. In this violent clash, 20 soldiers of the Indian Army were killed, while China also suffered heavy losses. Since then, tensions between the two countries have increased significantly.
In Ladakh, the defense minister has decided not to meet Chinese leaders at a time when the US has expressed solidarity with India on this issue. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has paid tribute to the martyrdom of Indian soldiers in the Galvan Valley.
