PM Modi’s China Visit: SCO Summit, Bilateral Discussions, and Global Significance

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s arrival in Tianjin, China, was marked by a warm reception from the Indian community. His visit includes participation in the SCO summit and significant meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin. The SCO summit is being held in Tianjin. His last visit to China was in June 2018 to attend the SCO summit. This visit is particularly significant as it comes after the 2020 Galwan Valley clashes. The summit will review the SCO’s performance and determine a ten-year plan for its advancement. India has been an active member of the SCO since 2017, having previously served as an observer. The visit also takes place amid ongoing global economic changes, reflecting the significance of the discussions.
