The Chinese and Indian militaries agreed to maintain dialogue and communication through military and diplomatic channels and arrive at a mutually acceptable solution for disengagement at the border area as soon as possible, the Ministry of National Defense said in a statement on Tuesday.

On Monday, senior commanders from China and India held their seventh round of meetings in Chushul, a village near Pangong Tso in Southwest China's Tibet autonomous region. The exchange was sincere, in-depth and constructive, said Senior Colonel Ren Guoqiang, the ministry's spokesman.

Both sides shared their views on disengagement along the Line of Actual Control in the western parts of the China-India border.

In the end, both sides agreed to implement the important consensus reached by leaders of the two countries, refrain from escalating differences into disputes, and jointly safeguard peace and stability in the border regions.
