Which part of Kashmir has China controlled since the Sino-Indian War of 1962?

Since the Sino-Indian War of 1962, China has maintained control over Aksai Chin, a high-altitude, largely uninhabitable plateau located at the northernmost extent of the Kashmir region.1

Specifically, China occupies the northeastern part of Ladakh, which India claims as part of its own territory. China’s interest in this area was primarily driven by the strategic need to connect Tibet with Xinjiang via a military road, which was completed in the 1950s. Following the 1962 conflict, China retained control of approximately 14,700 square miles (38,000 square km) of this territory, and the status of the frontier remains a point of contention between the two nations.12
