New Delhi: The Chinese People’s Liberation Army “never deployed a single soldier” in Azad Kashmir (AJK) and China has no intention of establishing a base in the Indian Ocean Region said visiting National Defense Minister of China General Liang Guanglie. In a written interview to a leading English news paper, the General blamed interest groups of fabricating rumors to project his country’s normal development activities into ‘China’s preparation for war against India.’ Countries around China are apprehensive about its abnormal attempts to arm itself and belligerence in East and South China Sea. General Liang is on five-day visit to India and his visit is a first for a high ranking officer of PLA in the past eight years. “As Minister of National Defense of China, I’d like to take this opportunity to clarify to you once again: the PLA has never deployed a single soldier in Pakistan-controlled Kashmir,” General Liang said. There were reports that between 3,000 and 4,000 personnel were engaged in construction work and providing security in the region. Allaying regional fears of a PLA base in the Indian Ocean, the general claimed “has never established a military base overseas,” was not considering doing so in the Indian Ocean. He was reacting to reports that port in the Seychelles, which has offered to host a facility for China, or those being built by Chinese companies in Pakistan or Sri Lanka, might become military bases in the future. He said it was “a common practice” for ships to go to ports of littoral countries for logistics supply, which did “not have any connection with establishing military bases overseas.”
