Could conflict with China make taps in India run dry? | Global Eyes

Описание: What effect could the India-China border dispute have on water resources in the region? The latest skirmishes between Indian and Chinese soldiers happened in December 2022. They are evidence of decades of conflict over a border between two nuclear armed neighbors that is more than 3,400 kilometer long.
This conflict could play out on the availability of water for millions of people, as some of India's most important rivers originate in China. Our hosts Isha Bhatia and Lewis Sanders are joined by Antara Goshal Singh, China Fellow at the Observer Research Foundation and by Farwa Aamer, Research Analyst at The Stimson Center, who shed some light on this important issue.
Editorial Team: Matthias von Hein, Nina Werkhäuser, Frank Hofmann, Akanksha Saxena
