Russia's Morgulov, Indian Ambassador discuss bilateral, regional agenda in phone talks

India is currently involved in a new surge of border tensions with China that came to a head in mid-June when a deadly brawl broke out between soldiers of both sides high up in the disputed Ladakh region. India said that 20 of its soldiers died in the skirmish, while an undisclosed number of Chinese soldiers are believed to have perished. This was the first time in nearly 60 years that border disputes between the two, which have effectively never been settled, have resulted in fatalities.
