China is becoming increasingly concerned over what it views as a possible alliance between the United States and India that effectively would give India added influence in a region that China has regarded as being in its own sphere of influence, according to a report from Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.

As a consequence, security analysts believe China is starting to view India as a potentially serious threat because of a developing U.S. focus on India's big power status.

The concerns are being expressed in Qiu Shi, the official journal and organ of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, or CPC. The importance of policy determinations as expressed in the CPC journal reflects those of China's supreme political authority, which controls all state apparatuses as well as the legislative process.

Public expression of the alliance between the U.S. and India as a potential threat to China comes as Beijing and New Delhi are on the verge of a military conflict over the strategic border region of Arunachal Pradesh.

From a strategic standpoint, the Arunachal Pradesh area provides security to Bhutan's and India's entire eastern flank. If the Chinese were to overrun Bhutan, it would expose India from the north. India's military challenge is heightened by China's continuing military cooperation and assistance with Pakistan which is regarded as a regional enemy of India.

But a concern for China is the prospect of significant Indian military purchases from the U.S.

India is trying to modernize its military and is seeking to move from its past reliance on Russian military hardware. According to security experts, India in the next few years will become one of the biggest arms importers in the world.

Beijing sees that New Delhi wants to introduce advanced U.S. technology into its military and diversify its sources of military equipment.

"The U.S. is tipping the balance between China and India, wooing India away from Russia and China and feeding India's ambition to match China force-for-force by its ever burgeoning arms sales to India," according to Qiu Shi.
