China warns India over worsening border situation
Beijing: The diplomatic resolution of the border row is not possible unless troops are withdrawn by India, which by "turning a deaf ear" to Beijing's demand will only worsen the situation, China's state-run media said.

India's External Affairs Ministry on Thursday said diplomatic channels were "available" to the two countries to resolve the border standoff in the Sikkim sector.

However, the commentary in Xinhua news agency seemed to reject India's overture, saying there was no room for talks until Indian troops vacated Doklam.
