    News Analysis (28 May, 2020) drishtiias.com/current-affairs-news-analysis-editorials/news-analysis/28-05-2020/print USA Offers Mediation Between India and China Why in News Recently, the USA President has offered to mediate between India and China over the Indo- China border standoff. The offer has come in the backdrop of the ongoing standoff between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC). Background Currently, India and China faces standoff at least four points along the LAC, including Pangong Tso lake, Demchok and Galwan Valley in Ladakh and Naku La in Sikkim. The tensions between two countries escalated along the LAC after China ordered the military to scale up battle preparedness and asked it to resolutely defend the country’s sovereignty. Subsequently, India has also increased its presence on the boundary with China in North Sikkim, Uttarakhand, Arunachal Pradesh, along with Ladakh. So far, at least six rounds of talks have been held between Indian and Chinese military commanders in Ladakh on the ground but have failed to achieve a breakthrough. Key Points 1/14 Offer by USA: The USA President has informed both India and China that the United States is willing and able to mediate or arbitrate their raging border dispute. It is the first time that the USA made such an offer to India and China, referring to the LAC situation as a “raging border dispute”. In the past, the USA had offered to mediate between India and Pakistan over Kashmir but it was rejected by India. India had cleared its position stating that the issue can only be discussed bilaterally.
