India - China Standoff: Trump offers Mediation between Two Countries to resolve Border dispute!

US President Donald Trump has tweeted an offer to mediate between India and China over what he calls their "now raging border dispute"

"We have informed both India and China that the United States is ready, willing and able to mediate or arbitrate their now raging border dispute. Thank you!," President Trump tweeted on Wednesday.

Several areas along the LAC in Ladakh and North Sikkim have seen a military build-up by the Indian and Chinese armies following a recent face-off.

Earlier during an online media briefing last week, Indian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said, "Any suggestion that Indian troops had undertaken activity across the LAC in the Western sector or the Sikkim sector is not accurate. Indian troops are fully familiar with the alignment of the Line of Actual Control in the India-China border areas and abide by it scrupulously."

President Trump's previous offers, to mediate between India and Pakistan on Kashmir have been firmly rebuffed.
