New Delhi, Aug 29 (PTI) : Just making “absurd claims” does not make other people’s territories yours, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Tuesday rejecting China’s so-called “standard map” that laid claim over Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin as regions within its borders.
He said Beijing had even put out such maps in the past claiming territories that are not theirs and that it is “an old habit” of China.
On Monday, Beijing released the 2023 edition of the so-called “standard map of China” that claimed Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin as belonging to that country.
