In the story of India, China, and the Ladakh border, two important developments have happened:
Prime Minister Modi and US President Trump got on a phone call for
a general discussion. After this, China indicated that there was no
need for anyone else to interfere in the issue between India and China.
For the first time, the talks about border dispute will be between
officers of Lt. General level. Until now, the issues have been resolved
by local army leaders from both sides (the rank of Major General in
India).
