Jaishankar is also expected to hold bilateral meetings during his visit.
India–China relations have begun to improve since Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping held a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the BRICS summit in Kazan on 23 October 2024 — their first in nearly five years.
During that meeting, the two leaders agreed to resume direct air travel between the countries, which had been suspended following the COVID-19 pandemic and the border clashes in 2020.
