India-China Relations Improve Amid Economic Imbalance and Trade Dependence
India and China are working to improve diplomatic ties following border clashes in 2020, with recent steps including resumed direct flights and expanded visa services.

India faces a significant trade deficit and dependence on Chinese imports in key industries like electronics and machinery. Both countries acknowledge challenges ahead as they seek to balance strategic mistrust with economic cooperation.
