India regarded itself as the legitimate owner of the looting left over by its colonial master, and that was the true reason for the war between India and China in 1962.
This has always been the problem with India. It sees itself as the continuation of British Raj because it has all the same institutions and political parties that were founded by the British empire. Pakistan was basically a rebellion against that setup and there were multiple Hindu states that tried to join Pakistan but Britain/Nehru refused.
India tried to maintain and expand the imperialist designs of the British Raj and refused to negotiate a peaceful agreement. The British Raj grabbed South Tibet and named it NEFA (Arunachal Pradesh). It also drew the Aksai Chin area into British India. These areas were never part of traditional India. Nehru was too imperialist to give up on the British designs and pursued an aggressive policy. China was basically defending its territory.
yeah sure they were. 🙄 Tibet disagrees, just like Hong Kong and Taiwan. 🙄 i love how Chinese sympathizers say this, yet the people who live there fight for thier lives and independence. 🙄
You conveniently neglected to mention the oppressed people of Kashmir, denied a promised referendum and governed by a genocidal fascist Indian military regime. @@joshsmith4512
So if the indian grabbed south tibet which at that time had its own sovereignty, they should side with the chinese communist and not fighting against them. How ironic?
If you visit Poatala Temple is Lhasa then you can understand why India who is westernised by colonisers wanted Tibet. The amount of gold and diamonds and other expansive minerals. Indianis bit able to develop Tibet asChina had done so because you can see that India still remains in the 50's If you see the infra structure in India I think it is clearly that China has served uts people.

The altitude of the Indian people changed after they themselves were in the driving seat. For example, British historian Arnold Toynbee remarked that the Indians when they were the subjects of the British crown couldn't care less on British India's frontier and may even consider what the British coveting of faraway land as immoral. The 1921 India's Congress Party even urge the neighboring states to refrain from entering into any treaty with the Imperial Power. But after 1947 Indian suddenly regard all these faraway land as sacred Indian territory. Here is Arnold Toynbee's words: "It is queer that lines drawn by British officials should have been consecrated as precious national assets of the British Indian Empire's non-British successor states. At the time when those lines were drawn the transaction produced no stir among the . . . Indian . . . subjects, as they then were, of the British crown. If any of them paid any attention to what Durand and McMahon were doing, they will have written it off as just another move in the immoral game of power politics that the British Imperialists were playing at the Indian tax-payers' expense. The present consecration of these British-made lines as heirlooms in the successor states' national heritages is an unexpected and unfortunate turn of History's wheel."

India and China are the two most disunited countries within the BRICS and the Americans and Europeans obviously exploit this diplomatically. Both countries have somewhat delved into capitalism, but the two political systems are becoming increasingly different because of Narendra Modi's theocratic ambitions. And military conflicts on the border between China and India heated up again in 2020.

@@jarjarbinks3193 If you describe the efforts of the Chinese people as a gift from the West, India will never become a great country.

And now China is leading the United States in fields such as 5G, shipbuilding, photovoltaics, batteries, display panels, supercomputers, high-speed rail, high-voltage power transmission, hypersonic missiles, new energy electric vehicles, etc. All of these are the creativity of the Chinese people. India quickly goes to lick the United States.
@@jarjarbinks3193 LOL, do you know what the Chinese paid to defend their country during World War II? More than 10 million people died in the war against invasion.

A timeline of India China border dispute: 1912: In the first full year of the Republic of China after the fall of the Qing dynasty, the United States National Geographic Magazine dedicated an issue to China. Accompanying the issue is a large and detailed fold-out map of China. The map clearly shows that Dirang Dzong (德讓宗) and Tawang (達旺) are within the boundary of China. 1943: British India likely calculated that dealing with the Lhasa government was easier than with the Republic of China's Nationalist Government in extracting land concessions and proposed to the United States to recognize Tibet's right to exchange diplomatic representatives with other powers. The Americans rejected this proposal: "The Government of the United States has borne in mind the fact that the Chinese Government has long claimed suzerainty over Tibet and that the Chinese constitution lists Tibet among areas constituting the territory of the Republic of China. This Government has at no time raised a question regarding either of those claims." 1944: British India annexed Dirang Dzong (德讓宗), a Tibetan-settled area. Dzong means fort in Tibetan. The Chinese Government (the Nationalist Government of the Republic of China, seated in Kunming at the time because of World War II) protested to the British. So did the Tibetan Lhasa government. 1945: British India intruded into the tribal area of South Tibet. February 1947: The Chinese Nationalist Government lodged a complaint with the Indian mission, which was by then newly established in China, on British India's border intrusions into Chinese territory. August 1947: Britain left South Asia, and India was created as the successor polity to the departed British. India's creation means that a country that historically did not exist suddenly appears on China's doorstep. October 1947: The Tibetan Lhasa Government dispatched a formal request to New Delhi, asking the newly independent Indian Government to withdraw all its predecessors' intrusions into the territory between the McMahon Line and the traditional border beneath the foothills and return a wide swath of territory from Ladakh to Assam, including Sikkim and the Darjeeling district. 1949: When the Nationalist Government's retreat to Taiwan was imminent, the Republic of China's ambassador in New Delhi reminded the Indian Government that China did not recognize the McMahon Line and held the Simla Convention invalid. October 1949: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) took control of the mainland, and its civil war rival, the Republic of China, retreated to Taiwan. December 1949: India recognized the People's Republic of China as the legitimate government, effectively cutting off the diplomatic channel the Republic of China used to deliver its protests to India. February 1951: India annexed Tawang (達旺), the birthplace of the Sixth Dalai Lama and home to the four-hundred-year-old Tawang Monastery. The Tibetan authorities in Lhasa protested but were simply informed by the Indian political officer that India was taking over Tawang. The Tibetans protested again, accusing the Indian Government of 'seizing as its own what did not belong to it.' The Tibetans went on to ask New Delhi to withdraw its forces from Tawang immediately. The protests were ignored. The Republic of China (which had already retreated to Taiwan by then and had no diplomatic relation with India) also vehemently denounced India's territorial travesty. The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) made no noise. 1954: India published a new map showing South Tibet as part of India. The map also shows the two countries, Sikkim and Bhutan, as part of India. January 1959: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) commented for the first time on the issue of South Tibet when Zhou Enlai, in a letter to Nehru, offered to concede South Tibet to India. However, India rejected the offer, as it also sought control over Aksai Chin. 1960: India started establishing posts (border markers) north of South Tibet (north of the McMahon Line) and proclaiming that it has the right to unilaterally 'improve' the McMahon Line as it sees fit. October 1962: After years of warning, China attacked India's position in South Tibet and recovered Tawang shortly. Three weeks later, in a second wave, China recovered the whole of South Tibet. November 1962: China unilaterally withdrew back to the north of the McMahon line. 1975: India annexed Sikkim. 1987: India made South Tibet a state and renamed it the so-called Arunachal Pradesh. The Republic of China (Taiwan) put out a statement denouncing India. Here is the statement: "In regard to the issue of the Indian government's illegal occupation of our country's territory and the establishment of the so-called 'Arunachal Pradesh,' the foreign ministry of the Republic of China issued the following announcement at midnight: India's illegal occupation of our country's territory has been repeatedly stated by the Government of the Republic of China as something it will not recognize. Recently, the Indian Congress unilaterally passed the establishment of 'Arunachal Pradesh' to the south of the so-called McMahon Line. The Indian Government also made it a state. The Government of the Republic of China once again solemnly proclaims that the Government of India intends to legitimize its illegal occupation of Chinese territory. The Government of the Republic of China regards this as illegal, void, and absolutely not recognized." 2008: A little over a decade after Britain returned Hong Kong to China, Britain finally had no stake in Tibet and could afford to be honest for once. The British government made a statement recognizing China's sovereignty over Tibet (previously recognized as suzerainty, not sovereignty). The statement, supported by both the Conservative and Labour parties, is remarkable for its honesty in admitting that Britain once had territorial ambitions in Tibet, and it adopts an almost apologetic tone. Here is an excerpt: "...But our position is unusual for one reason of history that has been imported into the present: the anachronism of our formal position on whether Tibet is part of China, and whether in fact we harbour continued designs to see the break-up of China. We do not. Our ability to get our points across has sometimes been clouded by the position the UK took at the start of the 20th century on the status of Tibet, a position based on the geopolitics of the time. Our recognition of China’s “special position” in Tibet developed from the outdated concept of suzerainty. Some have used this to cast doubt on the aims we are pursuing and to claim that we are denying Chinese sovereignty over a large part of its own territory. We have made clear to the Chinese Government, and publicly, that we do not support Tibetan independence. Like every other EU member state, and the United States, we regard Tibet as part of the People’s Republic of China. " 2014: A Tibetan Chinese named Nido Tania from Arunachal Pradesh (occupied South Tibet) went to old Delhi and was beaten to death because he 'looked Chinese.' 2024: The festering border dispute between India and China persists.
Its 2nd time I saw this wonderful documentary about China and India conflicts during the Cold War, and Tibetan revolted against communism Chinese authors

China invaded Tibet after Dalai Lama went to Beijing to meet Mr Mao. Overnight he sent tanks into Tibet. Dalai Lama has to return and be escorted by indians to India.
@@BerryMike-d9v Yup. Overnight. While Mao was meeting The Dalai Lama the day before an agreed on Tibets autonomy. He invaded tibet overnight after assuring tibets autonomy. It was a trick
If it is like what you said, why did India occupy southern Tibet and immigrate 5 million Indians to southern Tibet? ? ? This was an invasion, the Han people did not immigrate to Tibet.
So this Ren Linshain fought the end of October in the west part and shows up at the 10. of November in the east part of the conflict 😎 how stupid, do you think WE are😂
If you were talking about India, you are basically right as India have been fighting in multiple hot wars, bigger ones or smaller ones, with 6 of her 9 neighboring countries over past ~80 years. If you were referring to China, you just made a basically worthless joke as China had only 3 hot wars with 3 of her 14 neighboring countries over past ~75 years.
LOL, India is the 1 that uses an old colonial map, of their old colonial master, the British-Raj, to claim territory of all their neighbors. Not China, China was never a 100% colon-nised country like India.
China had war with neighbors, China won all the wars, but China never occupied one inch of the land of disputed territory, China was poor and occupied by western forces, that is why China had war. Like a small kid was bullied at school, once the kid grownup, he will take back what was his!!!
If it is like what you said, why did India occupy southern Tibet and immigrate 5 million Indians to southern Tibet? ? ? This was an invasion, the Han people did not immigrate to Tibet.
Yes, all Indian neighbors are bad neighbors. Pakistan, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, China, Sikkim... they all had wars with India. Why do all Indian neighbors treat Indians like this? ? ?
Never underestimate the Chinese government. Governments need to think two steps ahead of the leaders mind. Play a game of chess. It is a game of strategic moves. Just like China and North Korea and now Russia. I just wish people would just stop trying to be a leader of a country and trying to have one religion over another. Don’t let one person try to be ruler of all. Let us be leaders of humanity. If one person is in need help them no matter what they look like or what they believe. If by chance there is someone who wants to rule over others because of greed and start a war let all countries join together to stop that greed by doing peaceful help for the people that the cruel leader wants to destroy. That is why the United Nations started. With so many people living on this earth, we as humans only want to destroy the only rock we can live on.
Tibet was fully colonized by the "Manchu" Qing dynasty around the same time as European colonization. Europeans have given up their colonial possessions, while China hasn't. That is the difference.
Whatsoever, I think it was a great mistake, as well as a defeat of India, that they have let the communist grab Tibet against the will of the Tibetans. India should regain Tibet, or help them to regain their independence.
This is not real history. Some of these professors are purely expressing their personal opinions about Mao's personality and thinking. In addition, there was no mention about the fact that Tibet was a feudal society.
@@jarjarbinks3193 You are definitely entitled to your own opinions as long as you realize that your opinions are not facts, that is assuming that you are not delusional !!
Whether Tibet was a feudal society or not, isn't China's concern. Tibet was fully colonized by the "Manchu" Qing dynasty around the same time as European colonization. Europeans have given up their colonial possessions, while China hasn't. That is the difference.
@@jarjarbinks3193 You first understand what colonial rule is, and then distort the true history. the British Empire transported the resources and wealth of colonial India to England, Did the Qing Dynasty transporting the wealth of Tibet to Beijing? The British Empire popularized English in India, and the Qing Dynasty popularized Manchurian in Tibet? The British Empire's conquest of surrounding countries required Indians to join the army and assist. Did the Qing Dynasty require Tibetans to join the Qing army to conquer surrounding countries?
@@snowlee-ml7rr I am afraid, in those days, before the birth of the notion of a modern nation-state, it was normal for people to fight as mercenaries for anybody. Similarly, a lot of Chinese were working and colluding with the Japanese during WW2 right inside China as well. Yes, the British Empire transported resources out of its colonial territory, but it was temporary. In the case of Tibet, the occupation/colonization has become permanent. Tibetans have become a minority in their own city and they have to learn an alien language just to get good jobs.
@@jarjarbinks3193 If it is like what you said, why did India occupy southern Tibet and immigrate 5 million Indians to southern Tibet? ? ? This was an invasion, the Han people did not immigrate to Tibet.
Extremely biased documentary. They reduced the 1949-59 Chinese communist invasion of Tibet to a mere rebellion. How can it be rebellion when no Chinese army were present in Tibet. In fact when British Indian army attacked Tibet in 1904, which led to Indo-Tibetan border, there were not even single Chinese army in Tibet. China under launched its on expedition in Tibet following British attack in 1910 under Qing empire but was defeated and send back though India. In 1930-32 sino Tibet war when China was under Democratic republic Tibet took advantage of China and took several Territories out of Chinese control. In 1949 China under Mao communist launched attacks and only in 1959 they were able to capture Tibetan capital Lhasa after lots of diplomatic and military operations. Until 1962, China cannot gain full control of Tibet due to Tibetan Guerrilla war. After they gained complete control of Tibet than they launched attack on India.
Tibetan independence was never the issue but both wanted the Tibetan land. Both are mirror image of Milarepa uncle and aunt. China shamelessly lied that it liberated Tibet yet still oppress in Tibetan even after 75 years with genocidal rule. India while helping the Tibetan refugee has at core censored news related to Tibet since the infamous Chinni Hindi Bhai Bhai. Tibet is scrubbed aka censored or erased off from history in Indian school and college text books. 1:04

"...But our position is unusual for one reason of history that has been imported into the present: the anachronism of our formal position on whether Tibet is part of China, and whether in fact we harbour continued designs to see the break-up of China. We do not.
Our ability to get our points across has sometimes been clouded by the position the UK took at the start of the 20th century on the status of Tibet, a position based on the geopolitics of the time. Our recognition of China’s “special position” in Tibet developed from the outdated concept of suzerainty. Some have used this to cast doubt on the aims we are pursuing and to claim that we are denying Chinese sovereignty over a large part of its own territory. We have made clear to the Chinese Government, and publicly, that we do not support Tibetan independence. Like every other EU member state, and the United States, we regard Tibet as part of the People’s Republic of China. "
2014: A Tibetan Chinese named Nido Tania from Arunachal Pradesh (occupied South Tibet) went to old Delhi and was beaten to death because he 'looked Chinese.'
2024: The festering border dispute between India and China persists.
It is doesn't matter how badass you are some time at some point you gonna needs your spooky toy.
About the war per se, technically, yes, it’s a war between India and China; in reality, it’s more of a hunting game to China.
Protest signs in English….
Its 2nd time I saw this wonderful documentary about China and India conflicts during the Cold War, and Tibetan revolted against communism Chinese authors
Nothing says your an anti imperialist than attacking your neutral neighbor and seizing parts of their territory
Hey what's going on this your cousin India my cousin India do you know England was both our parent country at one point anyways China's messing with us and China realizes they're America's cousins let's go😂
Mao Zedong is very brave! He a strong man that turn China to a super power🎉
Either ways, India and China both want Tibet. China got it first. India is not innocent about human right, just look at Kashmir. 😂😂😂😂
China invaded Tibet after Dalai Lama went to Beijing to meet Mr Mao. Overnight he sent tanks into Tibet. Dalai Lama has to return and be escorted by indians to India.
Chinese sent tank to Tibet in 1950? You made my day dude ….
@@BerryMike-d9v Yup. Overnight. While Mao was meeting The Dalai Lama the day before an agreed on Tibets autonomy. He invaded tibet overnight after assuring tibets autonomy. It was a trick
十四世达赖喇嘛在中国曾经是全国人民代表大会副委员长哦，你们懂这是什么意思吗？
@@user-zhoujin Covid = China
@@singatakberpurayou are such an idi* that time, China only had a few tanks and Tibet had no good roads to let tanks come in.
Both countries have no problem usurping land, torturing people, and acting holier than thou. Disgusting.
China had fought several countries and came out still standing. That Chinese generation was tough.
If it is like what you said, why did India occupy southern Tibet and immigrate 5 million Indians to southern Tibet? ? ? This was an invasion, the Han people did not immigrate to Tibet.
Because it is very important for us to retain our Spiritual path particularly our beloved Lord Krishna Lord Ram Mother Sita
Can India made e-car and sell
So this Ren Linshain fought the end of October in the west part and shows up at the 10. of November in the east part of the conflict 😎 how stupid, do you think WE are😂
When you have border issues with ALL your Neighbours (even sea ones). Its obvious who is the problematic country! 🤣
If you were talking about India, you are basically right as India have been fighting in multiple hot wars, bigger ones or smaller ones, with 6 of her 9 neighboring countries over past ~80 years. If you were referring to China, you just made a basically worthless joke as China had only 3 hot wars with 3 of her 14 neighboring countries over past ~75 years.
LOL, India is the 1 that uses an old colonial map, of their old colonial master, the British-Raj, to claim territory of all their neighbors.
Not China, China was never a 100% colon-nised country like India.
China had war with neighbors, China won all the wars, but China never occupied one inch of the land of disputed territory, China was poor and occupied by western forces, that is why China had war. Like a small kid was bullied at school, once the kid grownup, he will take back what was his!!!
If it is like what you said, why did India occupy southern Tibet and immigrate 5 million Indians to southern Tibet? ? ? This was an invasion, the Han people did not immigrate to Tibet.
Yes, all Indian neighbors are bad neighbors. Pakistan, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, China, Sikkim... they all had wars with India. Why do all Indian neighbors treat Indians like this? ? ?
Never underestimate the Chinese government. Governments need to think two steps ahead of the leaders mind. Play a game of chess. It is a game of strategic moves. Just like China and North Korea and now Russia. I just wish people would just stop trying to be a leader of a country and trying to have one religion over another. Don’t let one person try to be ruler of all. Let us be leaders of humanity. If one person is in need help them no matter what they look like or what they believe. If by chance there is someone who wants to rule over others because of greed and start a war let all countries join together to stop that greed by doing peaceful help for the people that the cruel leader wants to destroy. That is why the United Nations started. With so many people living on this earth, we as humans only want to destroy the only rock we can live on.
No worries, Little-D-boi's plays with cow-fertilizer.
Free Tibet, support for Taiwan, Hong Kong, the Uygers, Ukraine & Israel!
China never had borders with India before 1947.
Qing-dynasty didnt.
The First ROC didnt.
The Second ROC didnt.
The PRC only in 1949.
你的历史在哪看的，资料出处是哪
那个时候还没有印度这个国家。没有大英帝国统一印度这片土地上的各个小国，哪来现在的印度？在1947年之前没有印度这个国家。

Tibet was fully colonized by the "Manchu" Qing dynasty around the same time as European colonization. Europeans have given up their colonial possessions, while China hasn't. That is the difference.
You post this video u can say anything u want.
Slaved to colonist thinking resulted in 80% of India land still have open toilets
taiwan is the real china btw
Taiwan is a semi-colony.
And the British-Raj is the 1 with borders with China.
Whatsoever, I think it was a great mistake, as well as a defeat of India, that they have let the communist grab Tibet against the will of the Tibetans. India should regain Tibet, or help them to regain their independence.
India should help Sikkim to regain their independence first.
This is not real history. Some of these professors are purely expressing their personal opinions about Mao's personality and thinking. In addition, there was no mention about the fact that Tibet was a feudal society.
@@jarjarbinks3193 You are definitely entitled to your own opinions as long as you realize that your opinions are not facts, that is assuming that you are not delusional !!
Whether Tibet was a feudal society or not, isn't China's concern. Tibet was fully colonized by the "Manchu" Qing dynasty around the same time as European colonization. Europeans have given up their colonial possessions, while China hasn't. That is the difference.
@@jarjarbinks3193 You first understand what colonial rule is, and then distort the true history. the British Empire transported the resources and wealth of colonial India to England, Did the Qing Dynasty transporting the wealth of Tibet to Beijing? The British Empire popularized English in India, and the Qing Dynasty popularized Manchurian in Tibet? The British Empire's conquest of surrounding countries required Indians to join the army and assist. Did the Qing Dynasty require Tibetans to join the Qing army to conquer surrounding countries?
@@snowlee-ml7rr I am afraid, in those days, before the birth of the notion of a modern nation-state, it was normal for people to fight as mercenaries for anybody. Similarly, a lot of Chinese were working and colluding with the Japanese during WW2 right inside China as well.
Yes, the British Empire transported resources out of its colonial territory, but it was temporary. In the case of Tibet, the occupation/colonization has become permanent. Tibetans have become a minority in their own city and they have to learn an alien language just to get good jobs.

Extremely biased documentary. They reduced the 1949-59 Chinese communist invasion of Tibet to a mere rebellion. How can it be rebellion when no Chinese army were present in Tibet. In fact when British Indian army attacked Tibet in 1904, which led to Indo-Tibetan border, there were not even single Chinese army in Tibet. China under launched its on expedition in Tibet following British attack in 1910 under Qing empire but was defeated and send back though India. In 1930-32 sino Tibet war when China was under Democratic republic Tibet took advantage of China and took several Territories out of Chinese control. In 1949 China under Mao communist launched attacks and only in 1959 they were able to capture Tibetan capital Lhasa after lots of diplomatic and military operations. Until 1962, China cannot gain full control of Tibet due to Tibetan Guerrilla war. After they gained complete control of Tibet than they launched attack on India.
Fake history made up by Endians.

India can withdraw and join g7, if the government consider Indian is as west as g7.

What China did in Tibet was horrible...
Tibetan independence was never the issue but both wanted the Tibetan land. Both are mirror image of Milarepa uncle and aunt.
China shamelessly lied that it liberated Tibet yet still oppress in Tibetan even after 75 years with genocidal rule.
India while helping the Tibetan refugee has at core censored news related to Tibet since the infamous Chinni Hindi Bhai Bhai. Tibet is scrubbed aka censored or erased off from history in Indian school and college text books. 1:04
China 👍 to day they will have many project 👍
India tried to keep Tibet free. China did terrible human rights abuses in Tibet.
lmao pot calling the kettle black. India has been committing atrocities in Kashmir for decades.
