China criticized the United States for getting involved in a border dispute between China and India over the region of Arunachal Pradesh. The U.S. declared its support for India by recognizing Arunachal Pradesh as Indian territory, leading to strong opposition from China. The dispute is part of escalating tensions between the two countries, who share a lengthy border. India asserts Arunachal Pradesh as its own, while China claims it as part of southern Tibet. The U.S.’s stance in favor of India in this disagreement reflects its efforts to align with India against China. The dispute intensified recently when India inaugurated the world’s longest bi-lane tunnel in Arunachal Pradesh, triggering sharp reactions from China.
