Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson on Saturday (August 16, 2025) announced that Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will be visiting India from August 18 to 20.

Mr. Wang will be holding the 24th round of talks between the Special Representatives of China and India on the boundary question at the invitation of New Delhi.

This is only the second such meeting since a deadly clash in 2020 between Indian and Chinese troops at the border.

Relations between the two countries have been thawing since an agreement last October on patrolling their border, easing a five-year standoff that had hurt trade, investment and air travel.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping at the end of the month when he travels to China — his first visit in seven years to attend the summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), a regional security bloc.
