He landed at Binhai International Airport in Tianjin for his two-day official visit and was greeted by senior Chinese and Indian officials.
PM Modi will participate in the 2025 Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit on August 31 and hold bilateral talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines. He is also scheduled to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin during the course of the summit.
This is PM Modi’s first visit to China after seven years, in a push for a reset in diplomatic relations that were strained since the Galwan Valley clash in 2020.
PM Modi’s visit to China came against the backdrop of US President Donald Trump’s recent tariff hike on Indian imports, which has damaged relations between the two democracies and forced New Delhi to explore other export destinations for products.
