China, India in Talks to Resume Border Trade After Five-Year Gap, Bloomberg News Says

India and China plan to restart symbolic border trade worth $3.16 million in 2017-18 amid easing tensions and rising US tariffs on Indian exports, officials said.

  • On Monday, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will visit New Delhi for talks, his first trip to India in over three years.
  • Under mounting US tariff pressure, Prime Minister Narendra Modi responded by strengthening ties with China after Trump doubled tariffs on Indian goods to 50%.
  • India and China are holding discussions to reopen border trade via Nathu La, Lipulekh, and Shipki La passes after over five years.
  • India recently allowed tourist visas for Chinese nationals, and China eased curbs on urea and fertilizer exports to India, signaling a thaw in relations.
  • In late August, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit, where a bilateral meeting with President Xi Jinping is likely.
