China-India talks: Narendra Modi praises ‘stable, predictable, constructive ties’
Both sides agree to use diplomatic and military mechanisms to advance border management and start talking about de-escalation
China’s top diplomat pointed to progress on border talks and an agreement to reopen various dialogue channels when he met India’s prime minister in New Delhi on Tuesday.
As the two countries make cautious efforts to improve relations, Wang Yi told Narendra Modi that he and Indian national security adviser Ajit Doval had reached a consensus on regular management and control to maintain peace in border areas.
They also agreed to “properly handle” sensitive points and advance delimitation talks in specific regions, when conditions permitted, Wang said.
In addition, the two countries will revive dialogue mechanisms across various sectors, according to a Chinese foreign ministry statement.
