Territorial changes source[edit]

This article reports that "A summer of fighting saw India lose control over about 300 square kilometers of land along the disputed mountainous terrain". It has amazing 3D maps of the territorial changes.

The result section[edit]

With no confirmation from whether the Indian govt or Chinese govt or any third party these accusations of losing 2000sqkm is false , it’s based on one analyst view in the articles how can this be shown as fact when neither govt and confirmed it or Any third party has confirmed it therefore it should be changed to stand off still on going V952010 (talk) 03:49, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Confirmation or denial by China or India would be a wp:primary source. They may have self-serving interests to not make statements regarding this. Such a source would only be acceptable to cite that they made such a statement. Adakiko (talk) 06:30, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Result is wrong[edit]

Both PM Modi and President Xi said that there were no territorial changes. So this is incorrect. 70.171.38.58 (talk) 22:08, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is correct per the seven wp:secondary sources that indicate "2,000 sq km land ceded". Modi & Xi are wp:primary sources. They may have reasons for stating such that are different. Perhaps not wanting to admit the loss — not wanting to provoke a war, for instance. e.g. their statements are self-serving. See Conflict of interest. Please support your heading with reliable, secondary sources. Thank you Adakiko (talk) 23:08, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
