Ahead of the India-China military talks, the United States on Monday (January 10, 2022) said that it is 'concerned' by Beijing's attempt to intimidate its neighbours.

While responding to a question on the India-China border dispute during a press briefing, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said that President Joe Biden's administration is closely monitoring the situation.

"We continue to closely monitor the situation, and we continue to support dialogue and peaceful resolution of these border disputes," she said.  

"We've been pretty clear how we view Beijing's behavior in the region and around the world. We believe it can be destabilizing. And we're concerned by the PRC's attempt to intimidate its neighbors," Psaki added. 

She said that the US will 'continue to stand' with its partners on that.
