Modi tells Xi summit will launch 'new era' for India and China

14 Sept 02:41 Key points summarised by AI

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi declared his summit with Chinese leader Xi Jinping would launch a "new era" of cooperation to overcome troublesome differences between the two nations.
The leaders, meeting for the second time in a year, agreed to prudently manage their differences, prevent them from becoming disputes, and address shared concerns about radicalization and terrorism.
Despite positive rhetoric, underlying tensions persist, including border disputes, India's recent changes to Kashmir's status (partially claimed by Beijing), China's backing of Pakistan, and India's significant trade deficit.
Discussions also focused on enhancing trade and investment, with India seeking to address its trade imbalance and China advocating for Huawei's role in India's 5G communications development.

The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
