\"\"ISLAMABAD : Monitoring Desk – Chinese \u200bPresident Xi Jinping is likely to attend next month’s BRICS summit in New Delhi with a \u200clarge delegation, three sources said, in what would be his first visit in seven years and a fresh sign of a thaw between the rivals.<\/p>\n

India is hosting the September 12 to 13 summit, where Xi’s presence would be watched less for the BRICS \u200bagenda than for what it signals about Beijing and New Delhi’s efforts to stabilise relations after deadly \u200bborder clashes in 2020.<\/p>\n

“Chinese officials are busy finalising hotels and security protocols,” one of the \u2060Indian sources with direct knowledge told Reuters.<\/p>\n

India’s National Security Advisor Ajit Doval on Monday started his visit to Beijing to \u2060meet Chinese \u200bForeign Minister Wang Yi to hold talks on the boundary issue.<\/p>\n

Last year, Indian\u00a0Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u00a0visited China for the first time \u200bin seven years, but the relationship has only improved gradually. More recently, a fresh border-related dispute triggered sharp diplomatic \u200bexchanges between the two sides.<\/p>\n

Two other Indian sources said Xi was likely to be accompanied by a delegation of about 400 officials, compared with fewer than 200 officials the last time in 2019.<\/p>\n

Officials from both countries are expected to use the summit to explore \u200bways to expand engagement while managing long-standing differences over the border and regional security issues, the sources added.<\/p>\n
