In a major step towards normalisation of Sino-India ties, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri will visit Beijing on 26-27 January for a meeting of the Foreign Secretary-Vice Minister mechanism between the two countries.

Trump’s Gambles

President-elect Donald Trump is making news even before assuming the presidency. This is not surprising because he is known for his mercurial and unpredictable stances on many global as well as bilateral issues.

Taliban fighters have taken control of large swathes of the country. Although the exact number of districts now under its control is not known, it is believed they now rule in more than a third of Afghanistan’s 421 districts and district centres.

Contradiction on China

For all these decades, Beijing has been in occupation of Indian territory. Yet India has in recent years spent billions of dollars of foreign exchange importing a great deal of goods including toys and even statues of Hindu deities. Because of these imports, many of our small and medium industries have had to shut down.
