A Sino-Indian armed conflict: Why China can bark but can't bite?

Defence Minister Arun Jaitley's recent riposte to the Chinese bullying over Doklam standoff and the response it evoked from China sum up the new reality of Sino-Indian relations: Jaitley said India was no longer the India of 1962 (when it was defeated by China in a war) and China replied it was also not the China of 1962.

Even though both meant something else, the fact is the two countries have come a long way from just being inimical neighbours. Bilateral and global contexts have completely changed from 1962. China may be a bigger military and economic power than India, but it can hardly afford a military conflict today.

China's global ambitions
During the past few years, Chinese President Xi Jinping has unleashed a grand propaganda for image makeover of the country. China does not want to be perceived as a bigger, richer and more powerful North Korea. In his first speech to the World Economic Forum at Davos in January, Xi surprised the world by defending economic globalisation and speaking against emerging protectionist trends all over the world.

Since there are signs of the US backing off from its position of the global leader, China is eyeing that role. But for that it needs to shed the image of a bellicose dictatorship and an unreliable trader. That's why China is increasingly presenting itself as a responsible power to the world.

China's global dream is best exemplified by its One Belt One Belt (OBOR) initiative where it tried to portray itself as a responsible global economic force which is willing to work for greater economic good of all.

Bullying and belligerence run counter to China's ambition to replace the US as global leader or at least its rhetoric of emerging as a responsible world power and a reliable, open economy. In the Doklam standoff, China has stooped to a new low of threatening to encourage separatism in Sikkim while it had started with a threat of armed conflict. Such posturing will hardly evoke confidence in innumerable small countries in Asia and Africa with whom China seeks economic partnership.

Regional challenges
China's efforts for supremacy in Asia are often challenged by India. A recent example is Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP). It is a proposed free trade agreement (FTA) between the 10 member-states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand.
For China, it means a lot as it will account for about 40 per cent of world trade. RCEP will provide much-needed markets for Chinese goods.

But, as Foreign Policy has reported, the China-backed trade deal meant to cement the Beijing’s dominance in Asia has veered off course because India is hesitant to open its borders to cheap Chinese goods. Though the RCEP is likely to be finalised by the year-end, it may not be exactly in the form China would like.

China's ambition to set the rules of the game, at least in Asia, is often frustrated by India. India's boycott of OBOR is a good example. An armed conflict with India will certainly put an end to China's dream of an overarching role in Asia. China can fulfill that dream only by engaging India positively.

The trade dependence
China-India trade cooperation has deepened over the years and the bilateral trade has grown 24 times in 15 years, from $2.9 billion in 2000 to $70.8 billion in 2016. China has emerged as one of the fastest-growing sources of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into India. It was 17th largest in 2016, up from the 28th rank in 2014 and 35th in 2011. A number of Chinese companies are setting up manufacturing units in India. It is India that depends on China in the trade equation—India's trade deficit with China has risen to $46.56 billion. China's exports to India account for only 2 per cent of its total exports.

Yet, no one can deny India offers China a promising market. An armed conflict will threaten trade ties. Maybe that's why China stopped Indian pilgrims from visiting Mansarovar but not trade through Nathu-la. China stopping the trade route might have invited a similar Indian response.

Typical India article. Why India didn't stop trade with China? Despite India being big in size, it still cannot beat a small South Korea in terms of trading with China. Fact is, most of those China import goods are critical for the infrastructure growth of India. From solar panel to tunnel boring machine and infrastructure building machine. Which if you import from Europe or other countries will triple the cost.

It's more of india can't afford trade war with China.

Why we should stop trade with you? If you wish you can stop the trade, we will be happy and save some dollars of our trade deficit. China loss $50 billion. I guess CCP is not stupid like some posters here to loss that much business.

You are not giving anything for free, so stop talking as if you are doing a favor. Also, we don't import any infra structure building machines as a whole from China. That's why you don't see any of such in India. The Machinery are either locally made or imported from Europe, South Korea,even China import critical machineries from Europe.

You should very well remember when you tried to pressure Japan by stopping rare earth minerals supply, they found an alternative way and with that China is slowly loosing the monopoly over rare earth minerals.
This is what happens when you try to pressure, people find alternative ways. So, better you don't play big bully and loss the trade, keep business and diplomacy some distance apart. I guess CCP learned a lesson from it. Or you will only loss your trade, and remember it might back fire like what is going to happen with US. US is going to slap duties on China made goods if they don't act against NK.
I should admire the Russians, they are smart unlike CCP who suddenly started to obey US. Now Russia is getting Cheap labor from NK, while China is poking around NK.

Dude, we have entered Bhutanese territory claimed by China and stopped Chinese road construction there, since then China is issuing hourly warnings and we are using these silly warnings as tissue papers. We haven't budged, we haven't moved an inch, and we are not allowing Chinese road construction there even after a few thousand warnings from China.......what else you need us to do to provoke you enough to retaliate with your 'HUGE sticks'? Don't be such cowards, show us what you can do for real.

Well, then why is SH dancing to the tune of India?
Modi's embrace of Washington may or may not last longer which I don't care, but what I care is the trade deficit with US is in favor of India. Rest is all BS.
India has it's own agenda.

LOL It is a good feeling to witness how Indian monkeys experience the China pain. It is even better to witness their acknowledgement and inability to do anything about it. It feels tremendously good.

India is nothing, but an old and ugly jealous housewife. All this jealous housewife can do is write irrelivant articles all day long about China.

Says the Indian monkey whose country rapes and kills in the name of a cow LOL India and shame are synonymous.

I wake up every morning feeling so good knowing that India got ripped into pieces by its colonizers. Keep writing articles. The world won't feel sorry for India.

Some Southern Monkeys from certain areas need to be nuked. The noises and pungent smell emitting from their body odor are torturous. Time to arm those MEGATONS and put them into good use. The World will thanks us for it.

 

[Sheikh Rauf]

Nope... China will never allow us to move forward. China know India will be the next rival to them, Hence they block us everywhere they get a chance. India should increase its GDP build up its military strength

Dragging along with tiny countries india can't afford any escalation with anyone in neighborhood solve border issues with Pak China and if u have with bangladesh or anyone els.

funny, because even Indian government admitted Indian soldiers will move back out like a little bitch in a few days. Looks like Indian soldiers already got bitch slapped, war is always the last option for the Chinese, but if Indian keeps infringing upon Chinese territory, then Indian is just asking for it, despite the so-called MAD destruction, Chinese can easily put these Indians in their place, they look like little dark skinny bitches anyway.
