China has released a video which reportedly shows its border clash with Indian troops last June after Beijing admitted that four of its soldiers were killed in the fatal high-mountain fight.
The footage, aired by Beijing's state broadcaster CCTV, is said to capture the bloody hand-to-hand combat between Chinese and Indian forces at the Galwan River valley, which also resulted in the deaths of 20 Indian servicemen.
The official channel claimed the clip showed an Indian army 'several times the size of the Chinese side' launching a violent revenge attack after a Chinese commander had tried to solve the two nations' border disputes through peaceful talks.

The pullback from China is really surprising and not in the line of what it did previously. Why increasing quality and quantity of military stuff for abandoning it suddenly? IMHO China doesn't want 2 front war at the same time, this mean we can expect something somewhere else, why not Taiwan?
