Amidst the tension in the Middle East after Israel and America jointly attacked Iran, China has given a big statement on the improving relations between India and China.

What statement did Wang give?
Wang Yi said in response to a question from an Indian journalist, “China and India are important neighbors and both are parts of the Global South, with deep cultural ties and broad shared interests. Mutual trust and cooperation between China and India is very beneficial to shared development.

“Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Xi Jinping met in Tianjin in August last year. The subsequent meeting in Kazan has warmed India-China relations.
