India Expresses Concerns about Chinese Troops in Kashmir

India recently conveyed its concerns to China about 11,000 troops reported to be in Pakistan-administered Kashmir. The Chinese said soldiers were assisting with flood relief, yet earlier unconfirmed press reports indicated the troops were providing security for railroad construction. It appears that China is dropping the nuances in its policy actions of the past ten years as to disputed regions of Asia. It is siding openly and unequivocally with longstanding allies. This explains China’s open embrace of Kim Jong-il, and its equally open tilt to Pakistan on the issue of Kashmir.
