Transitions to a Brilliant sponsor segment are always pretty far fetched, I even recall some like "If this historical figure only had today's sponsor Brilliant at their disposal, they could have solved their problems" 😂
Unfortunately, the Brilliant tool can't be that good if it failed to spot historical inaccuracies in this video. For example, at approximately 4.00 minute into this video, the narrator described "...in 1914... Tibet then A DE FACTO INDEPENDENT COUNTRY..." and the Republic of China met with the then British-India, Crown Jewel of the British Empire. This video is littered with historical inaccuracies and revisionism. Below is one example. HISTORICAL FACTS: In 1906 (eight years before 1914), Great Britain and China's Qing Dynasty signed "The Convention Between Great Britain and China Respecting Tibet". In this treaty (aka Treaty of Peking 1906), GB, at the time the largest and most powerful Empire the world has ever known, GB reaffirmed the continuation of Chinese possession of Tibet (that is, GB will not invade and occupy Tibet) - on the proviso that Beijing assures London that China will "not to permit any other foreign state to interfere with the territory or internal administration of Tibet". The 1906 Treaty of Peking is just one example to illustrate Tibet was never "a de facto independent country ". The "foreign state" referred to in this treaty was Russia. In this treaty, London and Beijing agreed to create Tibet as a buffer zone between Russia and British-India. Some years before this 1906 treaty, the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso (1876-1933), under the influence of Agvan Dorzhiev (a Russian subject) became the first Dalai Lama to promote Tibet's independence from China. (Just because Spanish Catalan president Carles Puigdemont declared Catalan independence from Spain in 2017 does not make Barcelona Catalan an independent country.) GB was so concerned with the emerging Russian threat coming from the north of British-India that the British sent a military force (Younghusband Expedition) to harass Lhasa in 1903-04. During the British military invasion, the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso, with the help of Agvan Dorzhiev, fled to Russia-controlled Mongolia. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1912 (China's last dynasty), the Republic of China continued to administer Tibet as a province (state) of modern China. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convention_Between_Great_Britain_and_China_Respecting_Tibet

The differences between China and India are why I dont really take BRICS seriously as an entity. All those countries can do some economically impressive things individually, but theres not much cohesion and in the case of India and China, active conflicts.
brics aren't alliance, they don't need to agree on everything. If anything it's even more important for 2 countries of so many difference to actually have dialog one another
BRICS was initiated by Morgan and other Western investment firms. Any political cooperation is irrelevant to its original purpose, which is to have emerging markets talk to one another and hopefully agree to market liberalization measures for these investment firms' benefits.
BRICS is more like a forum where they try to counterbalance the dominance of the West in the global economic order. The object is a more multipolar world where they can make their voices heard. To that end they have set up alternate financial institutions as well. So despite the bilateral conflicts the BRICS agenda is something that these countries actually agree on. It's not going to overthrow the G7 anytime soon but that's because the member-states' economies aren't there yet, not because they lack common ground. But the point was always to mount a challenge, not to immediately succeed.

As an Indian, I am impressed by the Indian government's stance. Every country has the right to maintain relationships on equal terms. If China wants a relationship on its terms, then India has every right to deny it and take steps to counter such narrative-based politics from China.

They are founding members of BRICS and do 100+ billions in trade yearly. They have economic rapprochement enough to have gotten rid of dollar for trade and are using their own currency to trade. They might have border disputes but economically that difference you speak makes no difference, they are adult enough to separate business from those squabbles.

It should be noted that neither the Republic of China nor the People’s Republic of China (current CCP) recognize Tibet. In fact, it was part of the Qing empire, so once the Qing collapsed, it was assumed that Tibet was maintained as Chinese territory.

And to this day, I don't really know why. (Airlines from Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Korea are the only non-Canadian airline options to mainland China from Vancouver.)

India does not want its western aircraft manufacturers to sanction their aerospace industry, as long as train and pipeline activity proceeds. India's BRICS+6 alliance is enough to keep their economic activity stable, with air traffic through 3rd parties. As India balances its relationship with Russia and the west, it cannot be overlooked that India also uses its Russia relationship to defend against China. This tri-lateral relationship is India's only resource to remain independent of western ambitions to recolonize the subcontinent.

Hey Fellow creator, great efforts to produce this video but I request do not put this map(3:42) representing India on the Global Map like this. Please Correct it, the disputed land not shown here are still and will always be an Integral part of India.
There is the usual nonsense propagated by this video. One is the Tibetan government recognize the McMahon line, which is nonsense. The McMahon line is a diplomatic forgery cooked up by Henry McMahon and added decades later to the agreement. The agreement itself was immediately repudiated by the Tibetan Lhasa government once the Tibetan official who signed the agreement went back to Lhasa. Anyway, here is the timeline of the dispute between the two countries. 1912: In the first full year of the Republic of China after the fall of the Qing dynasty, the United States National Geographic Magazine dedicated an issue to China. Accompanying the issue is a large and detailed fold-out map of China. The map clearly shows that Dirang Dzong (德讓宗) and Tawang (達旺) are within the boundary of China. 1943: British India likely calculated that dealing with the Lhasa government was easier than with the Republic of China's Nationalist Government in extracting land concessions and proposed to the United States to recognize Tibet's right to exchange diplomatic representatives with other powers. The Americans rejected this proposal: "The Government of the United States has borne in mind the fact that the Chinese Government has long claimed suzerainty over Tibet and that the Chinese constitution lists Tibet among areas constituting the territory of the Republic of China. This Government has at no time raised a question regarding either of those claims." 1944: British India annexed Dirang Dzong (德讓宗), a Tibetan-settled area. Dzong means fort in Tibetan. The Chinese Government (the Nationalist Government of the Republic of China, seated in Kunming at the time because of World War II) protested to the British. So did the Tibetan Lhasa government. 1945: British India intruded into the tribal area of South Tibet. February 1947: The Chinese Nationalist Government lodged a complaint with the Indian mission, which was by then newly established in China, on British India's border intrusions into Chinese territory. August 1947: Britain left South Asia, and India was created as the successor polity to the departed British. India's creation means that a country that historically did not exist suddenly appears on China's doorstep. October 1947: The Tibetan Lhasa Government dispatched a formal request to New Delhi, asking the newly independent Indian Government to withdraw all its predecessors' intrusions into the territory between the McMahon Line and the traditional border beneath the foothills and return a wide swath of territory from Ladakh to Assam, including Sikkim and the Darjeeling district. 1949: When the defeat of the Nationalist Government in China's civil war was imminent, the Republic of China's ambassador in New Delhi reminded the Indian Government that China did not recognize the McMahon Line and held the Simla Convention invalid. October 1949: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) took control of the mainland, and its civil war rival, the Republic of China, retreated to Taiwan. December 1949: India recognized the People's Republic of China as the legitimate government, effectively cutting off the diplomatic channel the Republic of China used to deliver its protests to India. February 1951: India annexed Tawang (達旺), the birthplace of the Sixth Dalai Lama and home to the four-hundred-year-old Tawang Monastery. The Tibetan authorities in Lhasa protested but were simply informed by the Indian political officer that India was taking over Tawang. The Tibetans protested again, accusing the Indian Government of 'seizing as its own what did not belong to it.' The Tibetans went on to ask New Delhi to withdraw its forces from Tawang immediately. The protests were ignored. The Republic of China (which had already retreated to Taiwan by then and had no diplomatic relation with India) also vehemently denounced India's territorial travesty. The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) made no noise. October 1951: The PLA (Peoples’ Liberation Army) seized Lhasa, capturing the last remaining part of mainland China (except South Tibet) that was up to that point beyond the Communist control. 1954: India published a new map showing South Tibet as part of India. The map also shows the two neighbors of China, Sikkim, and Bhutan, as part of India. Sikkim has been a tributary state of Tibet for hundreds of years. In the 18th century, Sikkim was briefly overrun by the Nepalese Gorkhas, causing the Sikkim king to flee to Tibet. The Gorkhas continued their push to the north to Shigatse (日喀則市) and sacked the Tashilhunpo Monastery (扎什倫布寺). The Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama requested help from the Qing court, and the Qianlong emperor dispatched two separate expeditions, expelled the Gorkhas, and restored Sikkim's sovereignty and independence. The Gorkhas were pacified and became a tributary state of the Qing dynasty. Sikkim remained unmolested for the rest of its history until it was annexed by India in 1975. January 1959: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) commented for the first time on the issue of South Tibet when Zhou Enlai, in a letter to Nehru, offered to concede South Tibet to India. However, India rejected the offer, as it also claimed Aksai Chin as part of its territory. 1960: India started establishing posts (border markers) north of South Tibet (north of the McMahon Line) and proclaiming that it has the right to unilaterally 'improve' the McMahon Line as it sees fit. October 1962: After years of warning, China attacked India's position in South Tibet and recovered Tawang shortly. Three weeks later, in a second wave, China recovered the whole of South Tibet. November 1962: China unilaterally withdrew back to the north of the McMahon line. 1975: India annexed Sikkim. 1987: India made South Tibet a state and renamed it the so-called Arunachal Pradesh. The Republic of China (Taiwan) put out a statement denouncing India. Here is the statement: "In regard to the issue of the Indian government's illegal occupation of our country's territory and the establishment of the so-called 'Arunachal Pradesh,' the foreign ministry of the Republic of China issued the following announcement at midnight: India's illegal occupation of our country's territory has been repeatedly stated by the Government of the Republic of China as something it will not recognize. Recently, the Indian Congress unilaterally passed the establishment of 'Arunachal Pradesh' to the south of the so-called McMahon Line. The Indian Government also made it a state. The Government of the Republic of China once again solemnly proclaims that the Government of India intends to legitimize its illegal occupation of Chinese territory. The Government of the Republic of China regards this as illegal, void, and absolutely not recognized." 2008: A little over a decade after Britain returned Hong Kong to China, Britain had exited its last colonial enterprise in Asia. Tibet no longer had the utility of a bargaining chip vis-à-vis the Hong Kong issue, allowing the British to afford honesty for once. The British government issued a statement recognizing China's sovereignty over Tibet (previously recognized as suzerainty, not sovereignty). The statement, supported by both the Conservative and Labour parties, is remarkable for its honesty in admitting that Britain once had territorial ambitions in Tibet and adopted an almost apologetic tone. Here is an excerpt: "...But our position is unusual for one reason of history that has been imported into the present: the anachronism of our formal position on whether Tibet is part of China, and whether in fact we harbour continued designs to see the break-up of China. We do not. Our ability to get our points across has sometimes been clouded by the position the UK took at the start of the 20th century on the status of Tibet, a position based on the geopolitics of the time. Our recognition of China’s “special position” in Tibet developed from the outdated concept of suzerainty. Some have used this to cast doubt on the aims we are pursuing and to claim that we are denying Chinese sovereignty over a large part of its own territory. We have made clear to the Chinese Government, and publicly, that we do not support Tibetan independence. Like every other EU member state, and the United States, we regard Tibet as part of the People’s Republic of China. " 2014: A Tibetan Chinese named Nido Tania from Arunachal Pradesh (occupied South Tibet) went to old Delhi and was beaten to death because he 'looked Chinese.' 2024: The festering border dispute between India and China persists. China's earlier offer to cede South Tibet is no longer available, as China has explicitly stated that South Tibet is part of its territory. This stance mirrors the positions of both the Tibetan Lhasa Government and its civil war rival, the Republic of China (Taiwan).
chinese are still ruled by a communist dictator while even africans are advancing politically with democratic societies.. look at south africa, kenya etc., where elections to choose leaders are becoming regular.. chinese are decades behind africa politically even tho African & Chinese intelligence is similar.. & when chinese eventually transition away from communist dictatorships, there could be chaos & china might break apart like the former soviet union.
India is an Older Civilization where Chinese, Greeks, Persians and South East Asian students used to come to study in Universities such as Takshashila and Nalanda. Both these Universities were established 2500 and 1500 years back respectively. These two were the oldest universities in the ancient world. The Chinese have gone on record to say "India has culturally colonised China for 2k years" you need to study real chinese history & not ccp lies.. most of ancient chinese culture came from india.. like buddhism, martial arts, tai chi & even sun tzu learned from kautilyas arthasastra etc..

Sure let’s agree Tibet is not China.. when it’s agreed that Kashmir & Jammu, Goa, Hyderabad, Punjab/Khalistan, Nagaland, Northeastern regions, Sikkim, Assam and etc are NOT India. And lndia should learn to keep to their own affairs without hypocritically accusing other countries of doing X Y and Z. Especially after the major trauma Kashmiris and etc have been doing to lndian forces.
@ArawnOfAnnwn. Read history. Nathu la in 1967 was a decisive win for India (scarcely publicised). 2020 Galwan was again 20 Indian casualties vs 43 Chinese. Aksai Chin in 62 should have been India, had Nehru not panicked, and went with the military's assessment!

@@seawater1322yeah what's up with all the poo going to China? Why don't the Chinese stop issuing them visas? They should at least use reciprocity as an excuse
Cold Knowledge: There are only 6 Chinese students in New Delhi, the capital of India, because the Indian government doesn't give business and study visas to Chinese, these people haven't gone back to China for a long time, because going back to China would mean facing the awkward situation of not being able to go back to India, which would prevent them from getting their diplomas. A few years ago, China invested heavily in India, and then India cut a large number of Chinese visas, resulting in many Chinese employees not being able to travel to India. Many Chinese who were doing import/export trade in India have also left the country, so I guess India got what it wanted. Also, in the last few years, India has introduced laws to scrutinize investments from countries neighboring it, and even without considering the possible malice behind this, just with India's administrative efficiency and corruption issues (no one would argue that there aren't any of these issues, right?) ), this will already result in many Chinese not being able to travel to India to do business. Let me cut out some of my malicious speculations here and just list these examples.
@@humeng-u5z The thing is, India got what it wanted. What India and Indians wanted after the Galwan clash was to erase China as much as possible from India, and it achieved that. I said this is another comment but India was once security > economy and China was economy > security, which is why Indian economy wasn't growing all that much. But now China has moved on to security > economy. But India remains the same only when dealing with China (security > economy) but treats every other country as economy > security. And it's not a problem of the Indian government, it is what majority of Indian people want. Indian people do not want to sacrifice the security and land for more economic growth.
@@xijinpig8982 I can refute every single sentence in your paragraph, but let's focus on the main point here: can robbing Chinese companies of their assets in India, blocking Chinese applications in India, chasing away Chinese businessmen and students in India, and blocking Chinese investment in India protect India's security and expand India's territory? Probably contrary to what you think, the vast majority here is not to protect India's national security, most of it is motivated by economic interests, and like India's harvesting of foreign investment in history, it's just a bunch of upper class people dividing the spoils.
@@xijinpig8982 I disagree with your erasing China from India part. Trade with China is at all time high. Government is planning to relax restrictions for Chinese businesses. Indian businesses are frustrated because they can't get cheaper raw materials.
@@humeng-u5z I mean it's a complicated subject, you gave your points in the perspective of China but India has its own perspective. The constant border disputes and China releasing their new map basically gave a very clear message to India and the rest of South-East Asia: "We have sole rights over Asia, we get what we want regardless of what your opinion is". China also projects an extremely bad image of India and Indians to their citizens and China has been debt-trapping every other country around India with military bases and pushing anti-India sentiment to other countries' populations. This is absolutely unacceptable, so why shouldn't India fight back?
Congratulations, After so many discriminatory terms against Chinese companies, not many Chinese companies will go to India now except some western controlled Chinese companies. India's Modi really did the worst job possible to improve India's economy. India right now has a very bad reputation in business world. India's senior official and leaders only has one last options. Which is the west, and let me tell you, they will sell their souls and India is more likely become another Brazil and Argentina. The India government will sell farmlands and resources at a discounted price in exchange for west investment, and there is really no other options.
I work with Air China, the national airline of China as IT support from Bangalore and we have not met our Chinese team since 2020. Before that they used to visit every other year and now there seems to be no hope with the geopolitical situation
Just because there are no direct flights between the 2 countries, it does not also mean that nationals from neither country _do not visit the other country_ either. They still do, through connecting flights through 3rd countries.
Most people flying from China to India and vice versa are required to transit somewhere like Hong Kong, Dubai, Bangkok or Singapore in order to reach their next destination. However, I don't think India will likely to let Chinese airlines flying to India for the foreseeable future because the relationship between China and India become strained for the last few years.
From the Indian perspective, one sentence from Polymatter sums up the problem: "The Chinese city of Lhasa". I am not sure Polymatter even realized the significance of that sentence. Indians don't think of Tibet as China. Culturally and civilizationally, Tibet was/is much closer to India. In terms of current military and political power, it's the opposite. Add to that the Chinese claims on Ladakh, the entirety of the state of Arunachal Pradesh, and that they don't consider the entire state of Sikkim to be a part of India, and you have more than enough reasons for a highly adversarial relation between the two nations. India simply views China as a colonial power eating up Indian territory, and the CCP reinforces that view all the time.
Typical nonsense. In fact, there is a 180-degree shift in India's geopolitical viewpoint after gaining independence from British rule. British historian Arnold Toynbee noted that while Indians were subjects of the British Crown, they were largely indifferent to British India's borders and even condemned the British Empire's annexation of distant territories as immoral. In 1921, India's Congress Party went so far as to urge neighboring states not to enter into treaties with the Imperial Power (the British Raj). However, once Indians assumed sovereignty, their perspective underwent a complete reversal. Suddenly, the once-distant lands of the British Indian Empire were seen as sacred Indian territory. Even more alarmingly, India began asserting territorial claims over areas that had never been claimed, let alone controlled, by the British Raj. In essence, aspiring to emulate the British Raj, India became expansionist in its own right. In Arnold Toynbee's words: "It is queer that lines drawn by British officials should have been consecrated as precious national assets of the British Indian Empire's non-British successor states. At the time when those lines were drawn the transaction produced no stir among the . . . Indian . . . subjects, as they then were, of the British crown. If any of them paid any attention to what Durand and McMahon were doing, they will have written it off as just another move in the immoral game of power politics that the British Imperialists were playing at the Indian tax-payers' expense. The present consecration of these British-made lines as heirlooms in the successor states' national heritages is an unexpected and unfortunate turn of History's wheel." The one who sees itself as a colonial power is India. And this is the reason India land grabbed every one of its neighbors once it came into existence. 1947 Annexation of Kashmir 1949 Annexation of Manipur 1949 Annexation of Tripura 1951 Annexation of South Tibet: 1961 Annexation of Goa: 1962 Annexation of Kalapani, Nepal: 1962 Aggression against China: 1971 Annexation of Turtuk, Pakistan: 1972 Annexation of Tin Bigha, Bangladesh 1975 Annexation of Sikkim (the whole country): 1983 (Aborted) Attempted invasion of Mauritius 1990 (Failed) Attempted annexation of Bhutan: 2006 Annexation of Duars, Bhutan: 2013 Annexation of Moreh, Myanmar
@@PomegranateChocolate You quote a British historian, and give a list that basically translates to "India annexed India". It's really funny to see you include even places like Tripura and Manipur, where my family is from. Also, please stop crying about fictional events like a 1990 attempted annexation of Bhutan, 2013 annexation of Moreh, and so on. I shared the Indian perspective. I hope you understand what "perspective" means. In the end, though, neither perspective will matter. Whichever nation has a better military and political strategy will win. The relation, however, will remain adversarial. You have made that very clear.
India is basically spreading poverty by Invading other countries. look at South Tibet, the wage in south Tibet is ten times less than the wage in North Tibet. In North Tibet people drive their own car when they travel, in south Tibet people ride rickshaw and bikes. Portuguese is ten times richer than India too, look at what happened in Goa, people ride rickshaw and bikes now in Goa. And India even want to be a member of UN security council by invasion if they could. How pathetic is that? Do they want poverty reach out to UN security council as well?😅

Framing Brilliant as a helpful tool for India & China to solve their crisis is craazy
Well... we'll never know if they don't give it a try!
Transitions to a Brilliant sponsor segment are always pretty far fetched, I even recall some like "If this historical figure only had today's sponsor Brilliant at their disposal, they could have solved their problems" 😂
As if 3rd and 4th strongest army in the world don't have experts sitting there
Gotta get that money
Unfortunately, the Brilliant tool can't be that good if it failed to spot historical inaccuracies in this video. For example, at approximately 4.00 minute into this video, the narrator described "...in 1914... Tibet then A DE FACTO INDEPENDENT COUNTRY..." and the Republic of China met with the then British-India, Crown Jewel of the British Empire.
This video is littered with historical inaccuracies and revisionism. Below is one example.
HISTORICAL FACTS:
In 1906 (eight years before 1914), Great Britain and China's Qing Dynasty signed "The Convention Between Great Britain and China Respecting Tibet". In this treaty (aka Treaty of Peking 1906), GB, at the time the largest and most powerful Empire the world has ever known, GB reaffirmed the continuation of Chinese possession of Tibet (that is, GB will not invade and occupy Tibet) - on the proviso that Beijing assures London that China will "not to permit any other foreign state to interfere with the territory or internal administration of Tibet".
The 1906 Treaty of Peking is just one example to illustrate Tibet was never "a de facto independent country ".
The "foreign state" referred to in this treaty was Russia. In this treaty, London and Beijing agreed to create Tibet as a buffer zone between Russia and British-India.
Some years before this 1906 treaty, the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso (1876-1933), under the influence of Agvan Dorzhiev (a Russian subject) became the first Dalai Lama to promote Tibet's independence from China. (Just because Spanish Catalan president Carles Puigdemont declared Catalan independence from Spain in 2017 does not make Barcelona Catalan an independent country.)
GB was so concerned with the emerging Russian threat coming from the north of British-India that the British sent a military force (Younghusband Expedition) to harass Lhasa in 1903-04. During the British military invasion, the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso, with the help of Agvan Dorzhiev, fled to Russia-controlled Mongolia.
After the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1912 (China's last dynasty), the Republic of China continued to administer Tibet as a province (state) of modern China.

The differences between China and India are why I dont really take BRICS seriously as an entity. All those countries can do some economically impressive things individually, but theres not much cohesion and in the case of India and China, active conflicts.
brics aren't alliance, they don't need to agree on everything. If anything it's even more important for 2 countries of so many difference to actually have dialog one another
Agreed. BRICS might be a good idea one day. But not anytime soon.
BRICS was initiated by Morgan and other Western investment firms. Any political cooperation is irrelevant to its original purpose, which is to have emerging markets talk to one another and hopefully agree to market liberalization measures for these investment firms' benefits.
BRICS is more like a forum where they try to counterbalance the dominance of the West in the global economic order. The object is a more multipolar world where they can make their voices heard. To that end they have set up alternate financial institutions as well. So despite the bilateral conflicts the BRICS agenda is something that these countries actually agree on. It's not going to overthrow the G7 anytime soon but that's because the member-states' economies aren't there yet, not because they lack common ground. But the point was always to mount a challenge, not to immediately succeed.

India should just release Kashmir and Punjab, and let them form their own country. And look at the seven sisters. There are 46 million people living there, of which only 24 million are Hindu. And nearly all of them are in Assam. In the remaining 6 states, Hindus are just 30% of the population. Why do they get to rule over the other 70%?

I’m Indian and I admire the Chinese penchant for hard work and perseverance. The politics and geopolitics of this whole India - China relationship is really unfortunate. I had the most wondering time when I was in China in 2019 walking along the streets of Beijing. I wish the British never colonised our lands and put us Indians in this quandary. I dream of us India and China becoming friends, we have so much more in common with the Chinese than we do with the Americans who have only been manipulating us for decades now.
So, in other words, you're saying the 1962 war, the Galwan clash, etc. were not started by China? Grow up, dude. They have a superiority complex-at least we can say this about their leadership. They border 14 countries, and they have conflicts and border disputes with almost all of them. The few disputes they've solved were on their terms, not the other party's. Does that seem normal to you? They started all of this, and you expect India to play by the rules?
@@ModeSix-ty3dk Yeah right , sit and brood over the same old old. You need to grow up and live the real world. We don’t live in a Hindi movie with poetic justice and all. India’s attitude towards China is the same as Pakistan’s attitude towards India. Pakis are hurting their economy by blocking Indian commerce. India is doing the same with Chinese - chopping their noses to spite their faces. The US will push us to war with China, and believe you me, when push comes to shove, there’s going to be no QUAD or USA to back us up besides some lip service. We’ll be left high and dry.

It should be noted that neither the Republic of China nor the People’s Republic of China (current CCP) recognize Tibet. In fact, it was part of the Qing empire, so once the Qing collapsed, it was assumed that Tibet was maintained as Chinese territory.

Another odd situation - I live in Vancouver, which was one of Chinese airlines' most connected North American destinations before COVID. But since 2020, we haven't seen a mainland Chinese airline land in Vancouver. We have Canadian airlines going from Vancouver to mainland China, but not the other way around. And to this day, I don't really know why. (Airlines from Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Korea are the only non-Canadian airline options to mainland China from Vancouver.)
There is literally only 1 direct flight route going between BC and China now and that's the AC25/AC26 route between Vancouver and Shanghai. I say this as a resident of Richmond who visited China a few months ago and was amazed by the lack of options.

CA998, MF806, and HU7960 currently operate flights to Vancouver once a week each.

However, Canadian regulations currently approve only a total of six flights per week.

India does not want its western aircraft manufacturers to sanction their aerospace industry, as long as train and pipeline activity proceeds. India's BRICS+6 alliance is enough to keep their economic activity stable, with air traffic through 3rd parties. As India balances its relationship with Russia and the west, it cannot be overlooked that India also uses its Russia relationship to defend against China. This tri-lateral relationship is India's only resource to remain independent of western ambitions to recolonize the subcontinent.
Interesting 🤔 ,, you have this kind of thoughts only bcuz you don't really know what india went through after independence. It's not easy to decolonize india at all but yeah , potentially speaking .. india can break into parts but that won't happen cuz the identity of being an Indian is actually a lot to Indians than any country's citizens. People say it's Britishers that bring india close. I'd say ,, no that's not it. The thing is whole subcontinent is actually filled with vedic culture and vedic religions except some parts like pakistan and Bangladesh that's why they got their own country. Initially , we were planning to create a total hindu and muslim nation but that plan was dropped due to secularism values

There is the usual nonsense propagated by this video. One is the Tibetan government recognize the McMahon line, which is nonsense. The McMahon line is a diplomatic forgery cooked up by Henry McMahon and added decades later to the agreement. The agreement itself was immediately repudiated by the Tibetan Lhasa government once the Tibetan official who signed the agreement went back to Lhasa. Anyway, here is the timeline of the dispute between the two countries.
1912: In the first full year of the Republic of China after the fall of the Qing dynasty, the United States National Geographic Magazine dedicated an issue to China. Accompanying the issue is a large and detailed fold-out map of China. The map clearly shows that Dirang Dzong (德讓宗) and Tawang (達旺) are within the boundary of China.
1943: British India likely calculated that dealing with the Lhasa government was easier than with the Republic of China's Nationalist Government in extracting land concessions and proposed to the United States to recognize Tibet's right to exchange diplomatic representatives with other powers. The Americans rejected this proposal:
"The Government of the United States has borne in mind the fact that the Chinese Government has long claimed suzerainty over Tibet and that the Chinese constitution lists Tibet among areas constituting the territory of the Republic of China. This Government has at no time raised a question regarding either of those claims."
1944: British India annexed Dirang Dzong (德讓宗), a Tibetan-settled area. Dzong means fort in Tibetan. The Chinese Government (the Nationalist Government of the Republic of China, seated in Kunming at the time because of World War II) protested to the British. So did the Tibetan Lhasa government.
1945: British India intruded into the tribal area of South Tibet.
February 1947: The Chinese Nationalist Government lodged a complaint with the Indian mission, which was by then newly established in China, on British India's border intrusions into Chinese territory.
August 1947: Britain left South Asia, and India was created as the successor polity to the departed British. India's creation means that a country that historically did not exist suddenly appears on China's doorstep.
October 1947: The Tibetan Lhasa Government dispatched a formal request to New Delhi, asking the newly independent Indian Government to withdraw all its predecessors' intrusions into the territory between the McMahon Line and the traditional border beneath the foothills and return a wide swath of territory from Ladakh to Assam, including Sikkim and the Darjeeling district.
1949: When the defeat of the Nationalist Government in China's civil war was imminent, the Republic of China's ambassador in New Delhi reminded the Indian Government that China did not recognize the McMahon Line and held the Simla Convention invalid.
October 1949: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) took control of the mainland, and its civil war rival, the Republic of China, retreated to Taiwan.
December 1949: India recognized the People's Republic of China as the legitimate government, effectively cutting off the diplomatic channel the Republic of China used to deliver its protests to India.
February 1951: India annexed Tawang (達旺), the birthplace of the Sixth Dalai Lama and home to the four-hundred-year-old Tawang Monastery. The Tibetan authorities in Lhasa protested but were simply informed by the Indian political officer that India was taking over Tawang. The Tibetans protested again, accusing the Indian Government of 'seizing as its own what did not belong to it.' The Tibetans went on to ask New Delhi to withdraw its forces from Tawang immediately. The protests were ignored. The Republic of China (which had already retreated to Taiwan by then and had no diplomatic relation with India) also vehemently denounced India's territorial travesty. The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) made no noise.
October 1951: The PLA (Peoples’ Liberation Army) seized Lhasa, capturing the last remaining part of mainland China (except South Tibet) that was up to that point beyond the Communist control.
1954: India published a new map showing South Tibet as part of India. The map also shows the two neighbors of China, Sikkim, and Bhutan, as part of India. Sikkim has been a tributary state of Tibet for hundreds of years. In the 18th century, Sikkim was briefly overrun by the Nepalese Gorkhas, causing the Sikkim king to flee to Tibet. The Gorkhas continued their push to the north to Shigatse (日喀則市) and sacked the Tashilhunpo Monastery (扎什倫布寺). The Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama requested help from the Qing court, and the Qianlong emperor dispatched two separate expeditions, expelled the Gorkhas, and restored Sikkim's sovereignty and independence. The Gorkhas were pacified and became a tributary state of the Qing dynasty. Sikkim remained unmolested for the rest of its history until it was annexed by India in 1975.
January 1959: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) commented for the first time on the issue of South Tibet when Zhou Enlai, in a letter to Nehru, offered to concede South Tibet to India. However, India rejected the offer, as it also claimed Aksai Chin as part of its territory.
1960: India started establishing posts (border markers) north of South Tibet (north of the McMahon Line) and proclaiming that it has the right to unilaterally 'improve' the McMahon Line as it sees fit.
October 1962: After years of warning, China attacked India's position in South Tibet and recovered Tawang shortly. Three weeks later, in a second wave, China recovered the whole of South Tibet.
November 1962: China unilaterally withdrew back to the north of the McMahon line.
1975: India annexed Sikkim.
1987: India made South Tibet a state and renamed it the so-called Arunachal Pradesh. The Republic of China (Taiwan) put out a statement denouncing India. Here is the statement:
"In regard to the issue of the Indian government's illegal occupation of our country's territory and the establishment of the so-called 'Arunachal Pradesh,' the foreign ministry of the Republic of China issued the following announcement at midnight: India's illegal occupation of our country's territory has been repeatedly stated by the Government of the Republic of China as something it will not recognize. Recently, the Indian Congress unilaterally passed the establishment of 'Arunachal Pradesh' to the south of the so-called McMahon Line. The Indian Government also made it a state. The Government of the Republic of China once again solemnly proclaims that the Government of India intends to legitimize its illegal occupation of Chinese territory. The Government of the Republic of China regards this as illegal, void, and absolutely not recognized."
2008: A little over a decade after Britain returned Hong Kong to China, Britain had exited its last colonial enterprise in Asia. Tibet no longer had the utility of a bargaining chip vis-à-vis the Hong Kong issue, allowing the British to afford honesty for once. The British government issued a statement recognizing China's sovereignty over Tibet (previously recognized as suzerainty, not sovereignty). The statement, supported by both the Conservative and Labour parties, is remarkable for its honesty in admitting that Britain once had territorial ambitions in Tibet and adopted an almost apologetic tone. Here is an excerpt:
"...But our position is unusual for one reason of history that has been imported into the present: the anachronism of our formal position on whether Tibet is part of China, and whether in fact we harbour continued designs to see the break-up of China. We do not.
Our ability to get our points across has sometimes been clouded by the position the UK took at the start of the 20th century on the status of Tibet, a position based on the geopolitics of the time. Our recognition of China’s “special position” in Tibet developed from the outdated concept of suzerainty. Some have used this to cast doubt on the aims we are pursuing and to claim that we are denying Chinese sovereignty over a large part of its own territory. We have made clear to the Chinese Government, and publicly, that we do not support Tibetan independence. Like every other EU member state, and the United States, we regard Tibet as part of the People’s Republic of China. "
2014: A Tibetan Chinese named Nido Tania from Arunachal Pradesh (occupied South Tibet) went to old Delhi and was beaten to death because he 'looked Chinese.'
2024: The festering border dispute between India and China persists. China's earlier offer to cede South Tibet is no longer available, as China has explicitly stated that South Tibet is part of its territory. This stance mirrors the positions of both the Tibetan Lhasa Government and its civil war rival, the Republic of China (Taiwan).
chinese are still ruled by a communist dictator while even africans are advancing politically with democratic societies.. look at south africa, kenya etc., where elections to choose leaders are becoming regular.. chinese are decades behind africa politically even tho African & Chinese intelligence is similar.. & when chinese eventually transition away from communist dictatorships, there could be chaos & china might break apart like the former soviet union.

Dalai Lama with his army destroyed has no choice but to accept Beijing's terms. and he would return to Lhasa together with a Beijing appointed governor... of course white media never report on this fact, they have to whitewash history to make British look better and promote a racist narrative against Chinese. however the document do not lie and you can't just pretend the British never invaded Tibet.

Your video has sparked some fascinating discussions in my friend group (we're all aviation geeks 🚀👨✈). We're eagerly awaiting your next deep dive - maybe something on the Indian aviation boom? 🚀📈 (✿◠‿◠)
Warm regards from a grateful fan in Bangalore! 🇮🇳🌟
I've already shared this with my WhatsApp groups - everyone needs to see this! 🌟📲 You have a gift for making complex geopolitics not just understandable, but deeply engaging. 🙌✨ (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ Also, I've shared this with some colleagues at the Ministry of Civil Aviation - don't be surprised if you see a spike in views from New Delhi! 🇮🇳👀
Can't wait for your next video. You've got a fan for life here in Mumbai! 🇮🇳❤ (｡♥‿♥｡)

wait until you hear about the number of flights between India and Pakistan....
原来是这样的么，我第一次知道。不过中国人除了做生意以外应该真的真的真的没有人愿意去印度旅游，所以维持现状挺好的
I’m glad the feeling is reciprocal, we Indians don’t want anything to do with China either 🙏
@@SS-eu2ef But CHina lives rent free in every indian's bobble head. Wion and first post NON stop talking about china. Meanwhile in China no one really give a fuk about india at all. No one speaks about them or think about them.
@@SS-eu2ef and there's a surge of dirty indian vloggers going to CHina, and seeing just how backward india really is in comparison to China. Don't pretend like you don't know curry breath, you've watched them already.
@@seawater1322yeah what's up with all the poo going to China? Why don't the Chinese stop issuing them visas? They should at least use reciprocity as an excuse
@@SS-eu2ef 🤝达成共识。反正我们的公司进入印度市场都会被你们敲诈，不如直接放弃
Yeah mention india , show an crowed and poor street from an vedio from 90s ... RACISTS
Cold Knowledge: There are only 6 Chinese students in New Delhi, the capital of India, because the Indian government doesn't give business and study visas to Chinese, these people haven't gone back to China for a long time, because going back to China would mean facing the awkward situation of not being able to go back to India, which would prevent them from getting their diplomas.
A few years ago, China invested heavily in India, and then India cut a large number of Chinese visas, resulting in many Chinese employees not being able to travel to India. Many Chinese who were doing import/export trade in India have also left the country, so I guess India got what it wanted. Also, in the last few years, India has introduced laws to scrutinize investments from countries neighboring it, and even without considering the possible malice behind this, just with India's administrative efficiency and corruption issues (no one would argue that there aren't any of these issues, right?) ), this will already result in many Chinese not being able to travel to India to do business.
Let me cut out some of my malicious speculations here and just list these examples.

The thing is, India got what it wanted. What India and Indians wanted after the Galwan clash was to erase China as much as possible from India, and it achieved that.
I said this is another comment but India was once security > economy and China was economy > security, which is why Indian economy wasn't growing all that much. But now China has moved on to security > economy. But India remains the same only when dealing with China (security > economy) but treats every other country as economy > security.
And it's not a problem of the Indian government, it is what majority of Indian people want. Indian people do not want to sacrifice the security and land for more economic growth.
@@xijinpig8982 I can refute every single sentence in your paragraph, but let's focus on the main point here: can robbing Chinese companies of their assets in India, blocking Chinese applications in India, chasing away Chinese businessmen and students in India, and blocking Chinese investment in India protect India's security and expand India's territory?
Probably contrary to what you think, the vast majority here is not to protect India's national security, most of it is motivated by economic interests, and like India's harvesting of foreign investment in history, it's just a bunch of upper class people dividing the spoils.
@@xijinpig8982 I disagree with your erasing China from India part. Trade with China is at all time high. Government is planning to relax restrictions for Chinese businesses. Indian businesses are frustrated because they can't get cheaper raw materials.
@@humeng-u5z I mean it's a complicated subject, you gave your points in the perspective of China but India has its own perspective. The constant border disputes and China releasing their new map basically gave a very clear message to India and the rest of South-East Asia: "We have sole rights over Asia, we get what we want regardless of what your opinion is". China also projects an extremely bad image of India and Indians to their citizens and China has been debt-trapping every other country around India with military bases and pushing anti-India sentiment to other countries' populations. This is absolutely unacceptable, so why shouldn't India fight back?
Congratulations, After so many discriminatory terms against Chinese companies, not many Chinese companies will go to India now except some western controlled Chinese companies. India's Modi really did the worst job possible to improve India's economy. India right now has a very bad reputation in business world. India's senior official and leaders only has one last options. Which is the west, and let me tell you, they will sell their souls and India is more likely become another Brazil and Argentina. The India government will sell farmlands and resources at a discounted price in exchange for west investment, and there is really no other options.
I work with Air China, the national airline of China as IT support from Bangalore and we have not met our Chinese team since 2020. Before that they used to visit every other year and now there seems to be no hope with the geopolitical situation
Just because there are no direct flights between the 2 countries, it does not also mean that nationals from neither country _do not visit the other country_ either.
They still do, through connecting flights through 3rd countries.
Most people flying from China to India and vice versa are required to transit somewhere like Hong Kong, Dubai, Bangkok or Singapore in order to reach their next destination. However, I don't think India will likely to let Chinese airlines flying to India for the foreseeable future because the relationship between China and India become strained for the last few years.

From the Indian perspective, one sentence from Polymatter sums up the problem: "The Chinese city of Lhasa". I am not sure Polymatter even realized the significance of that sentence. Indians don't think of Tibet as China. Culturally and civilizationally, Tibet was/is much closer to India. In terms of current military and political power, it's the opposite. Add to that the Chinese claims on Ladakh, the entirety of the state of Arunachal Pradesh, and that they don't consider the entire state of Sikkim to be a part of India, and you have more than enough reasons for a highly adversarial relation between the two nations. India simply views China as a colonial power eating up Indian territory, and the CCP reinforces that view all the time.
Typical nonsense. In fact, there is a 180-degree shift in India's geopolitical viewpoint after gaining independence from British rule. British historian Arnold Toynbee noted that while Indians were subjects of the British Crown, they were largely indifferent to British India's borders and even condemned the British Empire's annexation of distant territories as immoral. In 1921, India's Congress Party went so far as to urge neighboring states not to enter into treaties with the Imperial Power (the British Raj). However, once Indians assumed sovereignty, their perspective underwent a complete reversal. Suddenly, the once-distant lands of the British Indian Empire were seen as sacred Indian territory. Even more alarmingly, India began asserting territorial claims over areas that had never been claimed, let alone controlled, by the British Raj. In essence, aspiring to emulate the British Raj, India became expansionist in its own right.
In Arnold Toynbee's words:
"It is queer that lines drawn by British officials should have been consecrated as precious national assets of the British Indian Empire's non-British successor states. At the time when those lines were drawn the transaction produced no stir among the . . . Indian . . . subjects, as they then were, of the British crown. If any of them paid any attention to what Durand and McMahon were doing, they will have written it off as just another move in the immoral game of power politics that the British Imperialists were playing at the Indian tax-payers' expense. The present consecration of these British-made lines as heirlooms in the successor states' national heritages is an unexpected and unfortunate turn of History's wheel."
The one who sees itself as a colonial power is India. And this is the reason India land grabbed every one of its neighbors once it came into existence.

@@PomegranateChocolate You quote a British historian, and give a list that basically translates to "India annexed India". It's really funny to see you include even places like Tripura and Manipur, where my family is from. Also, please stop crying about fictional events like a 1990 attempted annexation of Bhutan, 2013 annexation of Moreh, and so on. I shared the Indian perspective. I hope you understand what "perspective" means. In the end, though, neither perspective will matter. Whichever nation has a better military and political strategy will win. The relation, however, will remain adversarial. You have made that very clear.
Not to mention the brutal occupation of Kashmir
India is basically spreading poverty by Invading other countries. look at South Tibet, the wage in south Tibet is ten times less than the wage in North Tibet. In North Tibet people drive their own car when they travel, in south Tibet people ride rickshaw and bikes. Portuguese is ten times richer than India too, look at what happened in Goa, people ride rickshaw and bikes now in Goa. And India even want to be a member of UN security council by invasion if they could. How pathetic is that? Do they want poverty reach out to UN security council as well?😅
