The resolution reaffirms that the United States recognises the McMahon Line as the international boundary between the People's Republic of China and the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh.
Less than a month after the historic visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the US, a Congressional Senatorial Committee has passed a resolution recognising Arunachal Pradesh as an integral part of India.
The resolution was introduced by Senators Jeff Merkley, Bill Hagerty, Tim Kaine and Chris Van Hollen on Thursday.
The resolution reaffirms that the United States recognises the McMahon Line as the international boundary between the People's Republic of China and the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh. It pushes back against Chinese claims that large portions of Arunachal Pradesh are PRC territory, which is a part of the PRC's increasingly aggressive and expansionist policies, a media statement said.
