Question

State whether the following statement is True or False with reasons:

Relations between India and China are complex.

Answer 1

This statement is true.

Reasons:

1. Despite large-scale economic cooperation and trade (e.g., mobiles, machinery) between India and China, there has been continuous tension between them over border disputes (Ladakh, Doklam).
   
2. Additionally, China’s close relations with Pakistan and the competition for dominance in South Asia create an atmosphere of mutual distrust.
