India-Russia-China trilateral meet to touch upon issues of mutual concern |
Foreign Secretary Nirupama
Rao has said that issues of regional importance, mutual concern and mutual interest
will be discussed during the forthcoming trilateral meet between India, Russia
and China meeting in Bangalore. She added that the agenda of the trilateral meeting
would include discussion of the regional situation and ways of strengthening the
dialogue between the three countries, which are major powers in the region. “The
structure that the three countries have devised enables us to discuss issues of
regional importance and of course, our External Affairs Minister will be meeting
his Chinese counterpart during this meeting,” Nirupama Rao told public broadcaster
All India Radio in a recent interview. “This meeting will afford us the opportunity
to touch upon various issues of mutual concern and mutual interest in the bilateral
relationship, but you must understand that the larger context of this meeting
is trilateral,” she added. Rao further said that there would also be bilateral
meetings on the sidelines, where the Indian side would try to have a frank and
open discussion with the Chinese counterparts in order to remove misunderstandings
between the two countries. Rising tensions were evident recently when China tried
to block an Asian Development Bank (ADB) loan to Arunachal Pradesh and objected
to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s visit to Arunachal Pradesh. |
