On the day that the Indian government revealed details about the border clash with China in Arunachal Pradesh, the American administration commented on the tension.
The Joe Biden government said that it was glad that Indian and Chinese soldiers disengaged quickly in Tawang. Washington said that it is closely monitoring the situation, and encouraged Beijing and Delhi to use "existing bilateral channels to discuss disputed boundaries".
The clash occurred on 9 December 2022 due to Chinese aggression, and some soldiers were injured on both sides.
Chinese troops tried to "unilaterally" change the status quo along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Yangtse area of Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang sector but the Indian Army compelled them to retreat by its "firm and resolute" response, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said in Parliament on 13 December 2022.
