| “1890年的這個(gè)條約也確定了錫金和西藏之間的邊界；這條線(xiàn)后來(lái)在1895年加以標定。因此，關(guān)于錫金同西藏地方的邊界，不存在任何糾紛。” | "This Convention of 1890 also defined the boundary between Sikkim and Tibet; and the boundary was later, in 1895, demarcated.

In view of this the Government of India welcome the explanations given in the Chinese note relating to the boundaries between Sikkim and Bhutan on the one hand and Tibet on the other. The note states that the boundary between Sikkim and the Tibet region of China has long been formally delimited, and that there is neither any discrepancy on the maps nor any dispute in practice. The Government of India would like to add that this boundary has also been demarcated on the ground." |
