The military have exercised "great restraints" on the issue to maintain the two country's relation and regional peace and security, he said. "But goodwill does not mean no principle, restraint does not mean no bottom line."
 
India should abandon its fantasy of expecting change by stalling the situation, he said.
 
"No country should underestimate the Chinese military's confidence and capability in protecting peace, nor should they underestimate its determination and will to protect China's sovereignty, security and development interest," Ren said.
 
"The Chinese military will resolutely protect its territorial sovereignty and security interests," he added. "We strongly demand India to immediately withdraw its troops back to the Indian side of the border, and resolve this incident swiftly and appropriately, thus return peace and harmony to the border region."
 
On Wednesday, China's Foreign Ministry published a paper giving details of the incursion and rebuking India's excuses for their action.
 
On June 18, more than 270 armed Indian border troops and two bulldozers crossed the boundary in the Sikkim Sector at the Duo Ka La (Doka La) pass and advanced more than 100 meters into Chinese territory to obstruct road building of the Chinese side.
 
After more than one month, 48 Indian border troops and bulldozer still illegally remained in the Chinese territory.
