He died before I was born otherwise I would have asked him to relate all his experiences. His brother remembers some things but he is losing his memories. I know a lot of Indians will not agree, but I personally think China took a very measured response to the developments that had taken place in our history. Even at war they were humane.

To add to this: as both developing countries that have been independent for a short time, China was more respectful of India at the time.As the video says, India decided to take a step forward and China decided it could only strike back. China took the quick-fire approach, hitting the plains from the Himalayas in less than a month, and New Delhi was already panicking at the time. But China was poor, logistics and supplies were an issue, having suffered losses on the Korean battlefield, and also China was worried about the US intervention causing a bigger conflict, and withdrew its troops quickly before the US army could arrive. You can check the history, when the Chinese withdrew, they didn't take the spoils of war, and even repaired and refueled the cars abandoned by India, because the Chinese leaders at that time still wanted to solve the problem peacefully.

The farthest Chinese army attack on the eastern front of the Sino-Indian border reached the outskirts of Tespur, but did not enter the city. According to the memories of some veterans, they were stationed near the railway line of Tespur. After a while, the Chinese army received a message from Beijing. The order required them all to retreat and reach the stop line. During this period, the Chinese army did not suffer any pursuit.

The creation of India's borders was complex and led to major issues that persist to this day. Sir Henry McMahon, on the British side, drew the McMahon Line, which is supposed to separate India from China. However, this line is not recognized by China, yet India uses it to claim territories that are under dispute. Moreover, when India and Pakistan were divided in 1947, the borders were hastily drawn by Sir Cyril Radcliffe, which led to further conflicts, especially over the region of Kashmir. The actions of these individuals during the British colonial period have repercussions even today. It's crucial to remember our history and seek peaceful and fair solutions to these territorial disputes.

I will go further. If you call your resolution to the border issue a "Forward Policy", you are the aggressor, full stop. The reason why there is a border issue is due to the attempted expansion of the British Raj into Tibet and Xinjiang. Of course, many are under the impression that it was somehow the Chinese engaging in expansion at the area when the reverse is true. Another reason is that the Indian Republic for some reason wanted to inherit that colonial policy. India is obviously the aggressor here because it called its border policy the "Forward Policy"! Just push the borders further forward, be half hearted in resolving things peacefully and expect the Chinese not to react. As seen from the clashes at 2020, India has learnt nothing and wants to continue from Nehru's mistakes.

My state of Arunachal Pradesh was one of the main battlefields of this war, Indian army was beaten because many troops that came here were from the plains unused to mountain terrain and low oxygen at heights, bad logistics meant they were ill equipped for harsh temperatures and low on food/ammo. The chinese ususally bypassed strong positions and cut off the supply lines regulary out maneuvering Indian positions. Our soldiers fought valiantly with many stories of indivdual last stands against overwhelming odds but ultimately were beaten . Our leadership(both civilian and military) severly underestimated the chinese who had much experience fighting in mountains with veteran troops from Korean conflict.

I think this video favoured Indian viewers more coz it doesn't cover CCP's warning to "withdraw troops or bear all consequences", which was the most serious diplomatic statement already. The most important incident- Zhou Enlai's visit to India in 1960, which is now considered the turning point and eventually resulted in war 1962, is not mentioned. What Zhou said in India is thoroughly recorded and interpreted in English can be found online. Another person worth mentioning is India's Defence Minister V.K. Krishna Menon at that time. Menon's meetings with China's foreign minister Chen Yi and Zhou Enlai failed to reach its purpose to reach peace and ease tension. Ironically, he was the person worsen the situation and led India unprepared for war as India's Defence Minister. Before the attack, China was trying all its means to address the serious consequences and Zhou's visit was last hope to use diplomatic means to solve the tension. China was very surprised that India wasn't very well prepared for military conflicts during the attack. I hope both sides learn history as lesson and try their best to avoid wars to come.

@adrianbelko7683 10 ай бұрын

Krishna Menon was the reason India was forbade to prepare, Nehru and Krishna Menon both considered Xàina to be an ally as a fellow Soviet Sympathisers in the east, both of them though weren't cómmunísts exactly but they did despise càpitàlism and nations that accepted capitalis ideas, with no history of any conflict between both the ancient civilizations who had been welcoming traders from either sides since ancient times Nehru never actually saw a wàr coming, furthermore Mao Zedong's primary intention for waging a wàr(which btw it wasn't, it was just a blitzkrieg on Aksai chín with ridiculously large force of 80K soldiers against a scattered 20K across the border) was to tarnish Nehru and consequently India's image on global scale as a major geopolitical player which they were quite successful at after the wàr And warning to face consequences doesn't justify the attack on another democracy, especially when it's just not us alleging Xaìnese to have expansionist imperialist motive, nobody wants a wàr but actually executing such feel good ideas like showering flowers and exchanging sweets with those who consistently encroach on yóur land is pretty hard to do when yóu don't live there

Thus, no written documents and formal agreement were made. I don't think it is acceptable to invite some (Tibet, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Taiwan etc) representatives to form an agreement and inform another domestic regime/government that the border has been re-arranged. If one has determined to do so, plz at least consider the livelihood of your citizens/soldiers and deter its enemies from attacking.

The video downplays Indian Forward Policy; the constant push forward and taking over of the disputed territory, while the Chinese were retreating trying to avoid conflict. Also, constant Chinese diplomatic attempts and warnings in order to avoid the war were ignored. Since the Indians refused to stop their encroachment the Chinese decided that enough is enough, and launched a full scale assault, overruning the Indians. Ever since then, the wound-licking Indians blame the Chinese and make it like it was Chinese fault, even though the fault was entirely with India. The border issue still exists today because India is senseless and Indians have some kind of blind nationalism that prevents any kind of introspection and reason. Out of 14 countries China has land border with, it resolved border issues with all these countries except with India (and its protectorate of Bhutan, because India refused to allow Bhutan to make the agreement with China). India on the other hand has border issue with almost all neighbours and isn't interested in negotiations but wants 100% of all the claims, and these claims have nothing to do with historical India - but instead modern Indians want to be successors of colonial Indians and demand colonial borders, which is ridiculous and of course China won't accept that, nor should it. Most Indians today are brainwashed by fake news US and UK media (as well as their own), which makes sense because if you want to be a (neo)colony its only fitting to have thoughts formed by the master(s).

Chinese and Indians engaged in warfare reminiscent of ancient civilizations, with a strong emphasis on honor and respect for prisoners of war on both sides. This stands in stark contrast to the actions of Jihadists, Japanese, and Western imperialists. China demonstrated its military might, compelling India to modernize its armed forces, which in turn enabled India to successfully counter Pakistan's misadventures in 1965 and ultimately led to the events of 1971. Overall, it was a win-win situation for both countries involved, in my opinion

In the after-action report, the squad leader famously commented on thr Sikh’s bravery: “敌人非但不投降，还胆敢向我还击” (Instead of surrendering on sight, the enemy actually dared to shoot back). They were clearly too used to other Indian units’ lackluster resistance and were pleasantly surprised by the Sikhs. Squadleader’s name is Pang Guoxing, if you want to look him up 😅

This war was not a war of conquest. It was designed to teach India a lesson. When China destroyed the main force of India in the border area and the subsequent reinforcement, China declared the end of actions and retreated. China did the same thing in the border war with Vietnam. The West media often demonize China and bad-mouth the Chinese military. The biggest mistake India made was that they believed the West propaganda about China. China only stationed one field army in the entire Tibet. Only the border defense troops were involved in the fight. The lesson is: Underestimating China can be both deadly and humiliating.

Like Ladakh and South Tibet (Arunachal Pradesh), Aksai Chin is traditional Tibetan territory and is part of China. But in 1865, just after the Second Opium War and the Taiping Rebellion, China was extremely weak, and the British colonist took advantage of the situation to further their invasion into Tibet. W.H. Johnson, an official of the British Survey of India, arbitrarily drew the "Johnson Line". It incorporated nearly 30,000 square kilometers of land, including Aksai Chin, into British India, turning Aksai Chin into British Indian Kashmir. The British authorities did not even notify the Chinese government of this unilateral demarcation, let alone request recognition. However, there had never been any signs of Indian occupation or symbol of sovereignty in Aksai Chin. In Nehru's own words, it was a barren and desolate land, "not even a blade of grass could grow." On the other hand, China resumed its control over the area since the founding of the PRC. When it started building roads connecting Xinjiang and Tibet in the 1950s and continued until the end, India was not even aware of it. From any perspective Aksai Chin has never been a part of India.

Indian soldiers still used Lee Enfields and WW2 Era weaponary which were left as a founding junction for the Indian army by the British Empire.

They also gave us money which we thankfully invested in Economic and overall development of India rather than the army.

India keep hating on the British for "causing" this conflict yet they're the ones recognizing the borders drawn by their colonial masters. Their hypocrisy is astounding

If you look at the peoples of Northeast India, you will know that those territories are not Indian territories at all. If they do not belong to China, at least they should be independent instead of being occupied by poor Indian imperialism.

"The Indian parliament announced a national emergency", it says all. India was in panic and begged help from USSR and USA. China was calm and merciful. India's problem is to always overestimate herself and underestimate China. Same thing is still happening now.

Don't know who was begging when some troops got beaten up from Galwan during 2020 border skirmishes. Your country donot have the courage to attack India and using this stupid reason of mercy. We know better how your Mao was merciful to your own people.

Emergency is always imposed during any war. India asked for diplomatic support, but 1967 Chinese got a bloody nose when they overestimated themselves.

Wars are usually started with one side making gross underestimations of the other side such as “fire a few shots they will run away”, “Kick the door down off this rotten edifice and the rest will crumble.” Or “we can conquer them in 3 months”. History is full of such examples. Never underestimate someone’s will to defend their homes.

You show an Indian soldier wielding the FN-FAL SLR - our boys fought with WW1 vintage .303s. This wasn't a part of the IA up until '64 or '65. Ironically this is one of those changes that came to be because of this debacle. Overall great video. Excellent animation.

Yap the iconic SLR was issued only from late 60s-70s we were using the leftover Enfield 303 and Sten gun Tommy guns often only used by officers and for SAW we had the bulky 20 round British made BREN .

Yes, every time China launches a war of aggression it either claims to be "defending itself" or "recapturing inherent territory". This is why the Chinese believe the "China has never invaded any country" BS.

It's funny，The Chinese generals said that they had overestimated the strength of the Indian soldiers and had not expected China to win so easily when the real war broke out. Because China's elite armies were stationed in the north to defend against a Soviet invasion.

India does not have the spirit of contract, cheated a lot of foreign companies to build India, but finally monopolized the results, kicked them out, the money went to the villa of Indian corrupt officials, most businessmen think India is more than the United States without the spirit of contract, and withdrew from the Indian market.

What India admits but Western sources often omit, is that India built outposts north of the MacMahon line under the Forward Policy. That’s outside of the India-recognised border. Some of these outposts are still manned by Indians today.
