Hua Hin (Thailand), Oct 25 (IANS) India and China have agreed to maintain “peace and tranquility” on their disputed border, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said Sunday.
The prime minister told reporters at the end of his two-day trip to Thailand that he had “frank and constructive exchange of views” with his Chinese counterpart Wen Jiabao here Saturday.
Manmohan Singh said that he discussed various issues with Wen both during their bilateral talks Saturday morning and later at the dinner for visiting leaders hosted by the Thai prime minister.
He said India and China had agreed that all contentious issues should be resolved amicably.
“(There is a) need to maintain peace and tranquility on the border pending a settlement of the border issue,” Manmohan Singh said.
Manmohan Singh said he had told Wen that India viewed the Dalai Lama as “our honoured guest” and “a religious leader”. But he made no comment on the Tibetan spiritual leader’s proposed trip to Arunachal Pradesh next month.
