China, India should act more responsibly

Amidst a global pandemic, two nuclear-armed countries like China and India are in conflict with each other over their borders. If the conflict escalates further or a war does break out eventually, it will not be limited to the borders of these countries only but rather have a devastating effect on many of the neighbouring countries as well. The livelihoods of a large number of people in the region may become uncertain and innocent civilians may lose their lives. Therefore, it is the responsibility of China and India not to engage in conflict but find a peaceful solution to the problem. I hope the people of China and India will build an anti-war movement in their respective countries and force their governments to find a peaceful solution.
