BEIJING, Mar. 28 -- "Zangnan has been China's territory since ancient times. This is an undeniable fact", said Senior Colonel Wu Qian, spokesperson for China's Ministry of National Defense, at a regular press conference on Thursday.

It is reported that India's defense ministry said that China is making an "absurd" claim that Zangnan is an integral part of China's territory，adding that "Arunachal Pradesh" is an "inalienable part of India". And the US also recognized "Arunachal Pradesh" as Indian territory and opposed advancing territorial claims across the Line of Actual Control (LAC) by military or civilian means.

Defense Spokesperson Wu rebutted India's unreasonable remarks by asking "where does the so-called 'Arunachal Pradesh' come from?" And he also pointed out that the US has a terrible record of stoking disputes between other countries for selfish gains. The international community sees it clearly.

In the end, the spokesperson emphasized that there are mature mechanisms and communication channels between China and India on border issues. "The two sides have ability and willingness to properly handle the boundary question through dialogue and consultations", said the spokesperson.
