Ajit Doval to Meet Wang Yi in Beijing for 25th India-China Border Talks
National Security Advisor Ajit Doval is scheduled to visit Beijing on August 24 to participate in the 25th round of India-China Special Representatives talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi. These discussions focus on the longstanding boundary dispute along the 3,488-km border and aim to maintain peace and stability ahead of the BRICS summit in New Delhi. Both sides regard the mechanism as important for managing tensions, with hopes that Chinese President Xi Jinping's anticipated summit visit could facilitate further bilateral dialogue. External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar emphasized that border peace is essential for good relations amid recent reports of Chinese troop activity near Arunachal Pradesh.
