India shouldn’t join China’s BRI until its reasonable demands are met

在合理要求得到满足之前，印度不应加入一带一路。

India is justified in opting out of China’s ambitious multi-billion dollar Belt and Road Initiative until its concerns are addressed. Chinese president Xi Jinping has asserted that the massive project which creates road, rail and naval connectivity through much of Asia with linkages to Europe and Africa has “no geopolitical calculations”.

在印度关切的问题解决之前，印度完全有理由不加入中国野心勃勃的、投资数十亿美元的“一带一路”计划。中国国家主席宣称，这个大型项目通过在亚洲大部分地区建立公路、铁路和水路连通亚洲、欧洲和非洲，“没有地缘政治方面的考量”。

Yet the Chinese side is unwilling to assuage Indian sensitivities on the BRI’s flagship project, the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), passing through Pakistan Occupied Kashmir.

然而，中国方面不愿缓和印度对一带一路的旗舰项目，途径巴控克什米尔地区的“中巴经济走廊”的敏感神经。

India’s position on BRI has been that “development connectivity must be transparent, fair and equal”, in the process voicing the concerns of smaller South Asian countries that these projects will leave them indebted to China, economically and politically. India and its huge market is critical to the project’s success, which is also a way for Chinese companies to parcel out their huge debts to other nations.

印度在一带一路问题上的立场是，“互联互通必须透明、公平、平等”，这也道出了南亚小国的担忧，这些项目工程将使它们在经济和政治上受惠于中国。印度及其庞大的市场对这个项目的成功至关重要，这个项目也是中国企业将巨额债务派发给其他国家的方式。

These include countries that have faced the brunt of colonialism until a century ago. China’s hesitation to open up its markets to India and other countries raises the same spectre again.

这些国家在一个世纪前曾面临殖皿煮义的冲击。中国对向印度和其他国家开放市场的犹豫不决再次引发了同样的忧虑。

Given such realities, India must goad China to settle the border issue which is a source of constant tension. Further, China must also use its immense leverage with Pakistan to end the latter’s proxy war in Kashmir. India does not have to take sides in the ongoing trade war between US and China either, as it is a firm proponent of a rules-based multilateral trade order and must insist that both sides conform to their WTO commitments.

鉴于这样的现实，印度必须敦促中国解决边界问题，这是两国持续紧张关系的根源。此外，中国还必须利用其对巴基斯坦的巨大影响力，结束巴基斯坦在克什米尔的傀儡战争。印度不需要在美中国贸易战中选择站队，因为印度坚决拥护以规则为基础的多边贸易秩序，而且坚持双方都遵守世贸组织的承诺。

The Modi-XI summit is an opportunity to discuss the strategic issues raised by BRI instead of sweeping them under the carpet.

这次峰会是一个机遇，双方可以讨论一带一路引发的战略问题，而不再粉饰太平。

India will not join china, I bet. This is modi govt and not gandhi govt who walks and talks like garish chandra ki aulad and keeps their neighbour happy irrespective for the nation's intrest

我打赌印度不会加入。现在莫迪政服，不是甘地政权，甘地政权总是不顾国家利益，讨邻国欢心。

要提高基础设施建设速度，邻国之间的和谐相处是很重要的，就像美国-加拿大-墨西哥之间的自由贸易协定。生产力、旅游业、供应链等等一切都得到提升。

India must not consider OBOP unless Pakistan vacate it's aggression from Kashmir and China vacate it's aggression from Aksai Chin.

印度无需考虑一带一路，除非巴基斯坦从克什米尔地区撤出，中国从阿克赛钦地区撤出。

The practice of issuing stapled visa by the Chinese embassy to Indian citizens from Arunachal Pradesh and J&K must be stopped. China was the only country among the 15-member UNSC to have opposed the ban on Jaish-e-Mohammad chief Masood Azhar . The Chinese must stop protecting the terrorist to please the Pak. Indian sovereignty must be respected with regard to its objections to OBOR. The Chinese must also learn to respect and drop its objections to India's NSG membership. It must also stop using Pak to bleed India. Manipulating Brhamputra to India's disadvantage also must come to a stop. But it is unlikely that the dragon which does not see anything but its own megalomaniac interests to see reason and treat India as equal for the regional and global development

中国向“阿鲁纳恰尔邦”和J&K 的印度公民签发签证的做法必须停止。在联合国安理会15个成员国中，中国是唯一一个反对对穆罕默德军主席马苏德•阿兹哈尔实施禁令的国家。中国人不应保护恐怖分子以取悦巴基斯坦。在反对一带一路的问题上，印度的主权必须得到尊重。中国必须学会尊重并不再反对印度成为核供应国家。中国还必须停止利用巴基斯坦榨取印度。操纵雅鲁藏布江，让印度处于不利形势的局面也必须终结。但是，中国巨龙除了妄尊自大的利益之外，无视其他人，不会把印度放在地区和全球发展中的平等地位。
