This development was highlighted by the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman, Guo Jiakun, during his regular press briefing on Tuesday. Guo emphasized the ongoing communication between the two nations regarding border issues, stressing their joint efforts to implement agreements from the previous discussions.
Currently, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi is in New Delhi to participate in the 16th Meeting of BRICS National Security Advisors and High Representatives on National Security.

These interactions underscore the diplomatic engagements that both countries are committed to, in order to address their border-related challenges.
Guo Jiakun also commented on the stability of the situation along the China-India border, noting that both sides maintain effective communication channels. This stability is attributed to the active implementation of the consensus reached during the 24th round of boundary talks. The spokesman’s remarks suggest a cautious optimism about the progress being made in managing the complex issues along their shared frontier.
The upcoming round of talks is anticipated to further the efforts of both nations in handling border disputes and ensuring peace and stability. The continuation of these dialogues reflects the importance both China and India place on resolving their differences through diplomatic means, thereby reducing tensions and fostering a more cooperative relationship along their border.
