India and China have agreed to peacefully resolve a simmering border dispute between the world’s two most populous nations, officials in New Delhi said.
The meeting took place in a “cordial and positive atmosphere” and the two sides agreed to “peacefully resolve the situation in the border areas,” the statement said.
India and China share one of the world’s longest land borders, where conflict has intermittently broken out since a bloody border war in 1962.
Last month, an aggressive cross-border skirmish between Chinese and Indian forces resulted in minor injuries to troops.
