never heard of China and diplomacy..or else a very short diplomacy try..................even with SU you guys pumped the military next to the island to the teeth before backing down
I would like to read some links regarding China's Diplomacy attempts in recents scenarios......all i ever read is the military posture....hence direct me pleae
by the way, China has solved most boundary dispute by diplomacy attempts,
the former SCO is used for talking boundary and Boundary disarmament, solved the boundary problem with Rassia(1991, 2004 sign two Agreements), Kazakhstan（1994）,Kirghizstan（1996）, Tajikistan（1999），then 2001, SCO came out;
In 1999, China and VN signed agreement about land boundary dispute after 10 years talking
and China ,Bhutan talked on boundary dispute for 28 years, 20 times, will go on talking;
From now on, China solved boundary disputes are all by talking,
all the Border war happened when the other make Military action, such as
Indian forward policy(1962),
1969 Rassian attacked Zhenbao Island,
1988 VN attacked Chinese Yongshu Reef in south Sea
