You are welcome. Here is one detailing the India-China tension. China-India Tensions Still Strong at Meeting with Russia Posted by: Dexter Roberts on October 28 snip Tensions have flared between both countries’ militaries along their disputed 2,175 mile-long border, with both sides alleging more frequent troop incursions in recent weeks. And a planned visit by the Dalai Lama to the region of Arunachal Pradesh (controlled by India but claimed by China) has seriously angered Beijing. China already was upset when the Indian prime minister recently visited the disputed region—a move seen as deliberately provocative by Beijing. Now the Indian government’s decision to allow the Dalai Lama to visit that same border region (which China considers an Indian-occupied piece of it’s own Tibetan Autonomous Region) has added flames to the fire. China of course already deeply resents the fact that the top Tibetan leader, and several hundred thousand exiled Tibetans, are allowed to reside in India. Those frictions were on display for the world yesterday too: even as the foreign ministers were meeting, outside the venue at least 14 Tibetan students were arrested for protesting. businessweek.com
