India Says China Agrees Retreat to De Facto Border in Faceoff Deal
India and China have ended a three-week standoff on a windswept Himalayan plateau where they fought a war 50 years ago by agreeing to pull forces back to positions held before the confrontation, India’s foreign ministry said on Monday.
The two countries packed up tents and left the disputed patch on the 5,000-metre-high (16,000-foot) Depsang Plain late on Sunday. But it had not been clear how far they had withdrawn.
Neither side has given details of the terms of the deal.
