US says Arunachal Pradesh is part of India, amid Indo-China tensions
The US government recognizes Arunachal Pradesh as part of India and "strongly opposes" any unilateral attempts to advance territorial claims in the northeastern Indian state that shares a border with China, the US State Department said on Wednesday.
Nuclear-armed neighbours China and India share a 3,000-km (1,860 mile) frontier, much of it poorly demarcated.
