Withdrawal of troops by China from Doklam is a victory for Indian diplomacy: Shasi Tharoor
By ECONOMICTIMES.COM | Updated: Aug 29, 2017, 11.55 AM IST

Congress leader and former minister of state for external affairs Shasi Tharoor has hailed Indian diplomacy in the wake of withdrawal of troops by China from Doklam region.

Tharoor also congratulated Ministry of External Affairs and PMO for the same.

"Now that Chinese withdrawal seems to be confirmed, it looks like a victory for @Indiandiplomacy. Congratulations MEA & @PMOIndia," Sashi Tharoor tweeted.


The Indian government yesterday confirmed withdrawal of troops by both India and China from the Doklam region which saw bitter standoff between the armies of the two nation for over two and half months.

In Beijing, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, however, sought to highlight the withdrawal of Indian troops to dispel the impression of a climbdown by China.


The official, while stonewalling questions about India's announcement of the mutual disengagement of troops, claimed its soldiers continued to patrol the area.

Troops of the two countries had been locked in a standoff in Doklam since June 16 after Indian troops stopped the Chinese Army from building a road in the disputed area.

India had deployed about 350 Army personnel in the area.

Whats your opinion on settlement? IMO China was quite soft on the issue and it will hurt its image.

It totally makes sense, why would Chinese withdraw from their own territory. India had to withdraw since they were in an area disputed between China and Bhutan. I wish China would be more clear about Road Construction.

No, its give and take. China is agreed first not to build the road right now.
The road was the only concern for India. India gets job done. So its big win for Indian diplomacy.

However one spins it , china needs our permission to build a road in its own area.
Its unprecedented and a shock for the many cheerleaders here.

India gave Chieaps face saving opportunity. Imagine now even Bhutan will stand up against them. What a joke Chieaps have made of themselves.

India never claimed in her earlier statements as well that we would have any issue in withdrawing first. India always said this needs to be resolved through diplomacy and the road should not be built. So they have a diplomatic solution worked upon with Chieaps and then once they agreed to stop working on road, we withdrew. The utlimate objective of not allowing Chieaps to build the road is resolved.

Where is the road Chieaps? Where are your equipment? We remained in that area claimed by Chieaps for more than 2 months and you end up only shouting, barking making noises only. Where is the thermonuclear warhead that will flat new delhi?

The concession from China should be to remove the equipment now. But is there a guarantee that China would not restart the road building? What do you think would happen if China restart road building? This saga is not over.

But one thing for sure. China will build the road in the future with full military protection to ensure India cannot interefere. This is logical. The only way for India to stop road building next time is to start a war.

No, its give and take. China is agreed first not to build the road right now.

Right now is the key word. So China will also resume road building process and the area will be heavily armed. If India wants to stop China from building the road again, start the war first.
