Recently, President Jiang Zemin became the first Chinese head‐of‐state ever to visit the Indian subcontinent. This marks the completion of the first phase of evolving confidence‐building measures (CBMs) thus carrying the Sino‐Indian rapprochement forward to the next stage of concrete decisions. Given that the two sides have an interest in maintaining peaceful relations and have since been co‐ordinating their joint strategies in various multilateral forums, there seems no reason why they should not be able to resolve their problems across the table. However, their border dispute still unfortunately remains the greatest impediment to progress in Sino‐Indian ties. To start with, the two sides can initiate actions towards defining and demarcating the Line of Actual Control (LoAC) in the middle sector leading the way towards resolving the undoubtedly complex Sino‐Indian boundary question
