Burying the hatchets.

China lately turned on a new chapter in its leadership with new cadre in power which in no time of assuming power proclaimed its proclivity of enhancing its comprehension with other countries and the anticipation as well as its tendency for a better bonding with other global states was heartily welcome by India.

But now the fog seems to be rising up and the smog shrouding the real meaning of the prediction. China and India are likely to face the old challenges notwithstanding new rulers in China.

The newly elected President of People’s Republic of China Mr. Xi Jinping is going to hold his maiden international meeting as Chinese President with India on 26 March in BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) summit in Durban, South Africa.

Chinese leaders have not rolled out any cue or indication of how the Chinese government is going to have talks with the Indian delegation at Durban. Although Mr. Xi in a meeting with journalists of BRICS country said that he is going to walk on the bridge of five proposals with India which would comprise of:-

1.     Maintaining strategic communication.

2.     Keeping ties on right track.

3.     Expanding cooperation in infrastructure.

4.     Mutual investment.

5.     Strengthening cultural ties.

6.     Increasing coordination on multi-lateral affairs

7.     Accommodating each other’s core concerns.

But the thing that prevails in Mr. Xi statement is that China is indifferent on Indian topic and is reluctant to discuss Sino-Indian relationship and is procrastinating the areas of core importance and ergo the give points of proposal moved by the new Chinese President were the same issue which were raised by his predecessor former Chinese President Hu Jintao.

Since taking on the power of China in hand the Chinese top leadership has been indulged in its internal matters and India also doesn’t feature in its top international priorities.

China’s main topic are pertinent to USA which is trying to set its feet in Asia and the other is dispute over the Senkaku island with Japan in East China sea and reports from Beijing official proclaim that China’s top priorities contemporarily are USA, Russia and Japan.

 

Albeit India is not a top priority of China but still India and China are each other’s key partners.

According to Indian consulate is China, Beijing companies are executing $55 billion worth the projects in India which is more than in any other nation and according to Communist Party of China’s (CPC) official newspaper “The People’s Daily” China is investing its main interest in India and both the countries can be compatible with each other.

If the reports and the sentiments of China towards India are true then it’s an awesome thing and both the countries can support each other’s development; but how they are going to do it is something that is pretty mesmerizing and enthralling to be watched out for and both the countries should first discuss matters of border concerns and China’s abetment to Pakistan and other issues which are working as the apple of discord between the two nations and are separating two great powers from working with each other for the welfare of the world and more importantly for the welfare of their denizens.
