|
The Economic Times (March 15) reported that Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi is likely to
visit India in a week or so. It recalled that last week, ahead of the 15th round of Commanderlevel talks, Foreign Secretary Harsh V Shringla had said: "We have made it clear to China that
peace and tranquillity in the border areas is essential for the development of our relationship.
Development of India-China relationship has to be based on 'three mutuals' -- mutual respect,
mutual sensitivity and mutual interest."

(Comment: Wang Yi's visit will be related to the developments in Ukraine and pressure on
China from the US and West. India should keep the visit, if it materialises, at strictly a working
level and make no concessions to its current stance as spelt out by the Foreign Secretary.)
