General Zhao Zongqi, the People’s Liberation Army’s Western Theatre Commander who is considered as the mastermind behind the clashes between Indian and Chinese troops in eastern Ladakh, has been replaced by Chinese President Xi Jinping. General Zhang Xudong has been named as the replacement of Zongqi. General Zhang Xudong has never served along the India border and that is why New Delhi is expecting better behaviour from him.
