India, China agree to withdraw troops in Himalayas standoff

India and China have agreed to pull their troops from the contested Doklam plain in the Himalaya Mountains after a two-month impasse, the countries announced Monday.

Troops from both sides are slowly being pulled back from what is known as the Doklam standoff.

The "Doklam Disengagement Understanding" calls for a "no war, no peace" status in the area for 70 days, and a gradual withdrawal of troops by both sides.
