China plans massive dam near disputed border with India

The video discusses China's ambitious hydropower project on the Brahmaputra River, which is part of its 14th Five-Year Plan. The project, located near the disputed border with India, raises concerns about water security and geopolitical tensions. China controls the headwaters of many major Asian rivers but lacks water-sharing agreements with neighboring countries. A US-funded study suggests Chinese dams on the Mekong River have caused droughts downstream, a claim China disputes.
