Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday welcomed Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and director of the Office of the Central Commission for Foreign Affairs, in New Delhi. Their meeting highlighted the enduring ties between two of Asia’s oldest civilizations.
Modi recalled the leaders’ breakthrough summit in Kazan last October, describing it as a turning point that set bilateral relations on a positive trajectory. He emphasized that India and China are partners, sharing common ambitions for accelerated growth and global influence.
The prime minister underscored the need for sustained dialogue and trust-building measures to prevent boundary disagreements from escalating. As both nations mark the 75th anniversary of diplomatic ties, Modi urged a long-term vision to harness the full potential of cooperation.
Looking ahead, Modi said the emergence of the “Asian century” hinges on India-China collaboration in trade, technology, and sustainable development. He also expressed his anticipation for attending the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Tianjin, where regional teamwork will take center stage.
With global eyes on Asia’s rising influence, the New Delhi talks between Modi and Wang Yi send a clear message: strategic collaboration and honest dialogue can shape a brighter future for billions of people.
