India, China Explore Early Harvest Approach in Border Talks

India and China have a disputed border called the Line of Actual Control.

Their officials met in Beijing to discuss how to keep the border peaceful.

They also talked about deciding where parts of the border should officially run.

Instead of solving the entire dispute at once, they may first settle a few easier sections.

This plan is called an “early harvest” approach.

Both countries said they want to keep talking and improve cooperation.

Relations became much worse after a military clash in 2020, but high-level meetings have resumed.

More progress will depend on whether the border remains calm and whether soldiers continue to disengage.
