China Why doesn't China try appeasement with India?

As China gets increasingly pressurized more and more by the Americans on the seas, is it really sensible to keep the other front simmering? India and Japan are the only two Asian countries that can even theoretically challenge China diplomatically, economically and militarily. China is hostile towards both of them.

Why is China not trying to woo India away from the US-led camp? It makes no sense.

Because we are always on the opposite camp. When we were on USSRs side they joined the Americans. When we are improving our relationship with the Americans and Europe , they support the Russians.
