In 2017, a standoff occurred between India and China at the disputed region of Doklam, located between China and Bhutan. India intervened in response to Bhutan's objection to China's road construction in the area. China referenced historical documents to support its claims over the land but these were later proven to be inaccurate. The main motivations behind China's actions are to gain military superiority in the region and disrupt India's relationships with its neighboring countries. To counter this threat, India should pursue diplomatic strategies such as advocating for Tibet's independence and boycotting Chinese products.
