US supports 'return of status quo' on Doklam issue: Official:

Hopeful that India and China can negotiate a peaceful resolution to the ongoing Doklam standoff, a senior Trump official has said the United States 'supports return of status quo' of the tri-junction point.

The US is concerned about 'sovereignty issues and adherence to international law' amidst increased tension between the two Asian giants, said a senior administration official.

"We are monitoring the (Doklam) situation very carefully. We are concerned. We hope that the two sides can negotiate a peaceful resolution to the issue. We support return to the status quo," a senior administration official told PTI.

"We're also concerned about Bhutanese sovereignty issues. We're concerned in general terms about sovereignty issues and adherence to international law. I think that certainly pertains to this particular issue," said the official who spoke on condition of anonymity, given the sensitive nature of confrontation between India and China.

Even as China -- both its officials and the state- sponsored media -- have increased its rhetoric over the past few months, which at times is seen as entering the domain of threatening; New Delhi, which has taken a mature and strong stand against Beijing, according to experts, is believed has not reached out to Washington on this issue.

However, as a close friend the US has been closely monitoring the situation.

"We hope that India and China can find a negotiated solution to return to a peaceful state of affairs in the area. We are just watching it very carefully and we are in conversation with the Indian government about the issues. We stand ready to help if that is desired. But, for the time being, we're monitoring the situation carefully," the official said.

The senior administration official, in response to a question, however quickly clarified that there has been no such request from India and there is no such intention on the part of the United States as well.

"What kind of help? You said ready to help," the official was asked.

"Well, you know, I think it's for India and China to decide if that was necessary. I think for the time being the US is monitoring the situation very closely and very carefully," the official said.

"You know, it (the United States) sees it as a bilateral issue between India and China to work through. But certainly, we are interested in seeing peaceful relations prevail in the region.

"So, if there's anything the US can do to help that situation, we stand ready to assist," he added. -- PTI

The US is angry that its diplomatic presence in Bhutan is cut off by India. In the 21st century, protectorate status is a deeply abnormal condition that is incompatible with state sovereignty and international law. US is speaking out against Hindu meddling that reduces Bhutan to a protectorate and confines it to a diplomatic limbo.

US has finally spoken out against Hindu meddling that reduces Bhutan to a protectorate and confines it to a diplomatic limbo.

Even I did not anticipate such from the US.
Truly a slap on India's face.

China is smart.
They changed this river flow by agreeing with the US to work on North Korea.
Which they did. They stopped the crucial trade.
Now they have some kind of leverage with uncle Sam.

United States 'supports return of status quo' of the tri-junction point.

And morons (read false flagger) here think it is a slap on India.... First one should know the Indian objective of this stand off.....

 

[ashok321]

I have already maintained, US can not be trusted.
But this 10th pass Modi is relying too much on the US and finally would burn his fingers.
And it is coming to that.

Sad.... Modi does not have your level of education and thinking..... Very sad.....We look forward for a PM like you ...some one who is ashamed of his own nationality and ashamed of showing his own flag...

 

[ashok321]

Now that the US has taken the lead on this status quo subject being the superpower, some other countries would follow too.

I am dead sure.

Return of Status Quo is INDIA's demand. So it's true 'The Difference Between Stupidity and Genius Is That Genius Has Its Limits'

Status quo is one thing. The US as a UNSC member also talks of >> adherence to international law <<

This unmistakably talks of India's venture in Bhutan/China territory which the US wants to be vacated.

The US is aware that Doklam is not an Indian territory and that the India is definitely a transgressor here.
Hence the US wants a push back from India in a polite language.

To maintain the adherence to international law type.

Why it is so difficult to comprehend something so clear

Maybe, in tbe absence of any good news, some people pretend to amuse themselves by distorting every news to their liking
