Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will be visiting India on August 18-19, the Ministry of External Affairs confirmed on Saturday.
"At the invitation of NSA Ajit Doval, Member of the Politburo of the Communist Party of China and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will visit India on 18-19 August 2025. EAM Dr S Jaishankar will hold a bilateral meeting with Wang Yi," the MEA wrote.
"During his visit, Wang Yi will hold the 24th round of the Special Representatives' (SR) Talks on the India-China boundary question with India's SR, NSA Doval," the MEA added.
Wang and Doval are the special representatives of India and China respectively and lead talks related to the question of the boundary of the two countries.
Yi's visit to India comes amid a thaw in ties between Beijing and New Delhi following de-escalation along the Line of Actual Control (LAC). Both countries have also shown signs of rapprochement as US President Donald Trump has threatened steep tariffs on the Asian countries.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also set to visit China later this month for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit. It will be his first trip to China since the Galwan clashes that took place in 2020.
In 2024, PM Modi had met Xi on the sidelines of the 16th BRICS Summit at Kazan, signalling that the ties between both countries were stabilising.
Bloomberg had earlier reported that India and China are also set to resume direct flights as soon as next month.
