Australia opposes attempts to unilaterally alter status-quo: Australian Envoy to India

Australian Envoy to India Barry O'Farrell said that Australia supported India's move for de-escalation amid tension along the line of actual control and strongly opposed any attempts to unilaterally alter status-quo.

"Australia urges restrain at LAC and supports continued moves by India for de-escalation.

In my meeting with EAM today, I told him Australia opposes any attempts to unilaterally alter status-quo which only increase tension and instability.

It is important that bilaterally agreed principles and norms, which help prevent escalation, continue to be observed," said, O'Farrell to ANI.
