China on Tuesday voiced opposition to India’s announcement of names for disputed areas between the two countries.

Beijing has “never recognized the so-called ‘Union Territory of Ladakh’ unilaterally and illegally established by India and firmly opposes India’s announcement of so-called standard names,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told reporters, according to state-run Global Times.

The remarks followed a statement by the Indian Ministry of Home Affairs earlier this month announcing names for 28 places, including those in disputed border areas.
