The agreement or implied understanding formalized between India and China during the visit of Chinese Defense Minister sounds like putting a band aid on a wound which is profusely bleeding. This non-curable wound relates to what happened in 1962. One is not sure about the preamble of this agreement which refers to the intent that India and China will work together to maintain peace in the South Pacific region. What does it actually mean? Does it mean that Indian ONGC can continue to drill in the South China Sea unfettered and its naval forces can move with impunity? Or does it mean that China has become the best friend of India and is willing to show the same type of cooperation and understanding in other regions which are under dispute with China? India ought not to forget that China works on a long range vision and their international policy is predicated on 'pick and chose' basis. China has realized that its relationships with the neighboring countries around the South China Sea are deteriorating, it has become a thorn in the eyes of the USA and the close proximity of India to the USA make China feels segregated. Hence, China is endeavoring to show some friendly gestures to India. But be aware that these maneuvers are like chess-game moves which usually are very opaque. Like in chess-game, unless you are thinking a step ahead of your opponent, you are bound to lose the game. Therefore, India needs to be very vigilant and before getting into any Chinese trap, a thorough probe of Chinese moves is warranted.
