The China visit of prime minister Narendra Modi is being rated as extremely significant in the context of an exercise to improve the deteriorating relations with China in terms of the existing border differences and the developments of Doklam that resulted in bitter relations between both the countries about ten months ago.

While the government of China as well as India is according tremendous hype and importance to Modi Xi summit, an expert on Indo China relations on the condition of anonymity termed these exercises as just a routine meeting to keep the people and media of the country in good humour as the 2019 elections are nearing as China being an expansionist country with a past record of suspicion and betrayal would never ever maintain its commitment of friendship with India as a trustworthy nation.

This is the fourth visit of prime minister of India Narendra Modi to China with good number of pre diplomatic level meetings of the top brass of foreign ministeries of both the countries including the NSA level talks but despite all this Doklam happened and incidents of several Chinese incursions on India borders continued unabated including indirect threats of the dragon on Dalai Lama and Tibet issues.

If we go by the statistics there have been hundreds of breaches of the Sino India agreement on border issues including China’s arbitrary efforts in blocking India’s membership in United Nations Security Council and the Nuclear Suppliers Club thus helping and pleasing India’s traditional enemy number one Pakistan.

The huge and massive investment in the China Pakistan Economic Corridor to the tune of 40 billion US Dollars is also an issue bothering India which is enough to prove home the point as to how pre strategically the Dragon is trying to counter India by way of arming its enemy through not only civilian assistence but militarily and nuclearly as well.

India has always been too peaceful and liberal in terms of its foreign policy with China, being a country, always believing in the Panchsheel principles of peaceful coalition and honouring the bilateral agreements on border dispute but the Chinese have always breached and betrayed India right from 1962 till now and had been applying various kinds of pulls and pressures to compel India to accept its over ambitious Belt and Road initiative, through which the expansionist China wanted to capture the world, particularly the Asian sub continent in the context of commerce and business.

India had the guts to openly refuse its Belt and Road Initiative as well as countering it in Doklam. Finally China had to relent and it withdrew from the dispute territory of Bhutan. Now China is trying to manipulate India diplomatically so as to earn its confidence and compel it to surrender psychologically and otherwise. But prime minister Narendra Modi and the most capable and intelligent NSA Ajit Doval are playing their own tricks to keep the Dragon in good humour and at bay so that the deteriorating or simmering tensions between both the countries could be revived and at least kept at par avoiding any further bitterness.

War these days is not a solution to any problem as every country of the world, small or big, developing or developed is armed with nucleur power which has extremely serious repercussions and implications.

Peace and friendship through amicable deliberations and mutual understanding through diplomatic channels is the only solution to keep the world and countries moving ahead, peacefully. If North and South Korea could unite as for now why can’t there be amicable understanding between China and India, predict some experts on foreign relations. Let’s see what comes out Modi Xi summit finally after the fourth visit of the former to China. What’s your take friends?
