China offers India dialogue to resolve differences on CPEC

ISLAMABAD: China on Monday offered to open talks with India to resolve differences on $50 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), opening the door for removing a major irritant in New Delhi-Beijing ties. “We are ready to work with Indian side through dialogue and communication for a better solution. This best serves the interests of the two countries,” Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said, when asked to comment on remarks on CPEC by Indian ambassador.

“Regarding CPEC, China has repeatedly reiterated our position. As to the differences between China and India, China stands ready to communicate and talk with India to seek proper solutions so that these differences will not affect our general national interests,” Ms. Hua observed. The Chinese foreign ministry’s advocacy for talks in the context of CPEC follows observations by Luo Zhaohui China’s ambassador to India. In November, Luo had expressed readiness to accommodate India’s concerns regarding CPEC.
