  • The Crisis After the Crisis: How Ladakh Will Shape India's Competition with China
    ANALYSIS The Crisis after the Crisis: How Ladakh will Shape India’s Competition with China ARZAN TARAPORE MAY 2021 THE CRISIS AFTER THE CRISIS: HOW LADAKH WILL SHAPE INDIA’S COMPETITION WITH CHINA The Lowy Institute is an independent policy think tank. Its mandate ranges across all the dimensions of international policy debate in Australia — economic, political and strategic — and it is not limited to a particular geographic region. Its two core tasks are to: • produce distinctive research and fresh policy options for Australia’s international policy and to contribute to the wider international debate • promote discussion of Australia’s role in the world by providing an accessible and high-quality forum for discussion of Australian international relations through debates, seminars, lectures, dialogues and conferences. Lowy Institute Analyses are short papers analysing recent international trends and events and their policy implications. The views expressed in this paper are entirely the authors’ own and not those of the Lowy Institute. ANALYSIS THE CRISIS AFTER THE CRISIS: HOW LADAKH WILL SHAPE INDIA’S COMPETITION WITH CHINA KEY FINDINGS • The still-unresolved Ladakh crisis has created a new strategic reality for India, marked by renewed political hostility with China, and an increased militarization of the Line of Actual Control. • This new strategic reality imposes unequal costs on India and China. India is likely to defer much-needed military modernization and maritime expansion into the Indian Ocean – which would impair its ability to compete strategically with China. • In contrast, China incurred only marginal material costs; it was probably more concerned with the prospect of continued deterioration in its relationship with India.
