India will not accept project that violates its sovereignty: MEA on China’s OBOR

NEW DELHI: India today rejected reports alluding a possible cooperation with China on Beijing’s mega ‘One Belt One Road’ (OBOR) venture, asserting that no country can accept a project that ignores its core concerns on sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Raveesh Kumar also noted that India’s position on OBOR/BRI was “clear and there is no change.”
“The so-called ‘China-Pakistan Economic Corridor’ violates India’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. No country can accept a project that ignores its core concerns on sovereignty and territorial integrity,” Kumar said. (AGENCIES)
