BEIJING (Reuters) - China has reached a resolution with India on resolving their border conflict and will work to implement solutions, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said on Tuesday. China and India have been in close communication through diplomatic and military channels, spokesperson Lin Jian told a regular press briefing.

India and China have arrived on a patrolling arrangement along their disputed frontier in the Himalayas and it can lead to disengagement and resolution of a conflict that began in 2020, Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said on Monday.

Four years ago, several soldiers from both sides were killed in a bloody melee. Any thaw between the countries could have global implications.
