China vs. Nepal

[lime]

Passt am besten in die Rubrik Gerüchte. China soll in die nepalesische Provinz Karnali einmarschiert sein und den Disktrikt Humla komplett besetzt haben. Humla ist sehr dünn besiedelt und in der Region wird befürchtet dass China ähnlich wie schon in Tibet die Verhältnisse durch Einwanderung von Chinesen dauerhaft ändern will/wird.

China encroaching along Nepal border - report

A Nepalese government report leaked to the BBC accuses China of encroaching into Nepal along the two countries' shared border.

It is the first time there have been official claims from Nepal of Chinese interference in its territory. The report was commissioned last September following claims that China has been trespassing in the district of Humla, in the far west of Nepal. China's embassy in Kathmandu denies there has been any encroachment. [...] The border between Nepal and China runs for nearly 1,400km (870 miles) along the Himalayan mountains. It was laid out in a series of treaties signed between the two countries in the early 1960s. [...]

Much of it is in remote, hard-to-reach areas. On the ground, the boundary is demarcated by a chain of pillars, set kilometres apart. [...] The Nepalese government decided to send a taskforce to Humla after reports about possible Chinese encroachment. Some claimed China had built a series of buildings on the Nepalese side of the border. The team consisted of representatives from the police and the government.
