China reacts to UK envoy’s remarks on India-China stand off, says ‘no need for any interference’indiaUpdated: Jul 24, 2020 17:15 ISTChinese ambassador Sun Weidong on Friday criticised his British counterpart Philip Barton’s remarks regarding the India-China border standoff, saying it was a bilateral matter that required no “third party interference”. “Noted remarks regarding #China by British High Commissioner to India, rife with mistakes & false allegations. Boundary question falls within bilateral scope [between] #China & #India. However, the British envoy had also made it clear that the India-China border standoff was a bilateral matter that the UK had no desire to be a part of. Britain had its own concerns about a range of Chinese actions and had also decided to remove Chinese technology giant Huawei’s equipment from all its telecommunications networks by 2027 because of security concerns, he said.
