1. India China summit highlights Modi's hope vs Xi Strategy 2.5.18 by Brahma C https://chellaney.net/2018/05/01/india-china-summit-highlights-modis-hope-versus-xis-strategy/
For example, India said the two leaders "issued strategic guidance" to their respective militaries to avoid further border friction. But China's statement made no mention of that. India, which has chafed against increasingly lopsided trade with China, said agreement was reached to strengthen trade and investment in a "balanced and sustainable manner." But that key phrase was missing from Beijing's version.
As if to pander to India's proverbial weakness — confounding symbolism with substance — Xi focused more on diplomatic stagecraft, including receiving Modi with a very long red carpet,
The U.S. is also warning that India's defense and energy dealings with Russia would attract sanctions under the new Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act, even as the Trump administration seeks "a flexible waiver authority" from Congress to protect relationships with India and others.
After Modi defiantly stood up to China's Doklam aggression and forced Beijing to accept a mutual pullback from the standoff, Chinese forces in the past eight months have quietly moved in and occupied much of that remote plateau
2. What will China gain from humiliating India by rahul sagar 2.5.18 https://www.livemint.com/Opinion/lrTdP2kpspKgpvbLVDAcEL/What-will-China-gain-from-humiliating-India.html
2a. China, India must strive for harmony 1.5.18 http://www.globaltimes.cn/content/1100289.shtml
Through this visit, Modi strives to improve India-China relations, adjust neighborhood diplomacy and New Delhi's ties with other major powers, pave the way for his election politically and attract China's investment.
China sees the informal meeting as a way to advance the common growth of developing countries, for Asia's rapid rise and the revival of Eastern civilizations. But for India, this meeting will likely end up achieving their tactical goals under the guise of attractive strategic slogans.
3. The New Han Empire, India and the Quashing of Tibet 2.5.18 by B D Barua http://www.indiandefencereview.com/news/the-new-han-empire-india-and-the-quashing-of-tibet/
The Modi Government's treatment of the Dalai Lama has been nothing short of derogatory since the leadership assumed power in 2014. In August of the same year, the Prime Minister met the Dalai Lama in secret at the former's official residence.Besides, Narendra Modi might very well go down in Chinese history as another Harsha, the king who ran to China at the drop of a hat and accepted the subjugation of Xi's Han China. 4. The fate of a visionary diplomat by Claude Apri 2.5.18 http://www.indiandefencereview.com/the-fate-of-a-visionary-diplomat/
One does not often pay homage to unknown diplomats: hade their advice been followed, the destiny of the nation could perhaps have different. This is the case of Sumul Sinha, the official in charge of the Indian Mission in Lhasa between 1950 and 1952. 5. Stone pelters attack school bus in Shopian 2.5.18 http://www.tribuneindia.com/news/jammu-kashmir/stone-pelters-attack-school-bus-in-j-k-s-shopian-nursery-class-student-hurt/582995.html
SN – A couple of months ago Mehmooba govt withdrew cases against over 5,000 stone pelters. J&K is a state where BJP strategy is very difficult to understand. They are gifting the State to the Valley.
