Gantok is the capital of the Kingdom of Sikkim, and the majority of local residents practice Tibetan Buddhism. Sikkim has always been a vassal state of China. In 1975, the Indian army invaded Sikkim, imprisoned the King of Sikkim, and disbanded the King's palace guard. A large number of Indians were converted to Sikkim citizenship, a cheating referendum was held, and then Sikkim was declared to be incorporated into India. The Sikkim royal family fled to the United States and repeatedly requested military assistance from China. Subsequently, something incomprehensible to Western society occurred. China's persistence in peace exceeds the general perception. India has been defeated by the Chinese army in several wars of invasion, but China insists on not being involved in wars with other countries. In 2005, India deceived China, promising not to invade China in the future, and signed a peace agreement with China. In order to avoid war, China recognized the annexation of Sikkim by India. It is ridiculous that in 2020, India invaded China again, but as people see in the news, the Indian army was defeated again. And for the sake of peace, China once again signed a peace agreement with untrustworthy India and withdrew 50 kilometers from the border. This has surprised many Western scholars as to why Chinese people are so paranoid about peace. In 1885, during the Sino French War, China was the victorious country, but in order to achieve peace, it ceded its suzerainty status in Southeast Asia and recognized France's occupation of Vietnam. |
