"Two days after the Galwan border clashes in June 2020, Jaishankar had laid down the line that “peace and tranquillity on the borders is essential” for re-commencement of bilateral relations. This line became a “whole-of-government” approach that Home, Defence, Finance and others have followed so far.

However, despite concerted efforts, it has not become a “whole-of-society” approach -- the business communities stepped up importing large amounts of goods from China, and India’s big industrial houses wanted to import “disciplined” workers from China"

If not for Raul Babas khatakhat schemes and appeasement politics along with tendency to speak ill on foreign soil , things jairam ramesh said would have kept the govt in a tight spot.

Instead of binaries why don't you view this as pragmatism in the face on increasingly volatile neighborhood especially the US's renewed needling & meddling in our neighborhood .

By sending signals to China that we're prepared to look into renewed TRADE ties without compromising our core position on the border, we're pre empting any more action by them on the LAC for the time being .

We need that time to see how things in BD evolve , to see if the Tatmadaw in Myanmar regain control over vast areas they've lost control over & more importantly get out act in Manipur together.

Instead of binaries

Very apt wording but it was not I that introduced the concept of border before boarder (as one author puts it) , iam more pragmatic than I seem, anyway what iam really interested is what was the gain by such binary approach and what will be the gain after this uturn and in my opinion Chinese needn't be sent any signal as trade was/is happening in a brisk pace even with border confrontation.

What was the situation in Manipur , BD & Myanmar in Apr - June 2020 ? Once you've answered that , compare it to what's it today . And these little games of Jaishankar relenting a bit on China just before Modi's visit to Washington or some high profile meeting or statement or gesture by us on the eve of Modi visiting Xi will continue till the balloon goes up which isn't too far off.

We need as much time as we can buy till then
