Beijing revealed on Wednesday that it had expressed concerns to New Delhi about its military exercises with the United States (US) near the Line of Actual Control, a disputed border between China and India.

In a daily news briefing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said the exercise "violates" the agreement reached by the two sides and "does not serve the mutual trust between the two countries."

On Tuesday, Indian and US forces took part in a high-altitude exercise over mountainous terrain near India's disputed border with China, at a time when the two countries are trying to manage escalating tensions with Beijing.
