Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Tianjin, China, for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit from August 31 to September 1—his first China visit since 2019 and the Galwan clash in 2020. The visit follows stops in Japan and comes amid US President Donald Trump's criticism of BRICS nations, including India, over oil trade with Russia. Ahead of the summit, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and NSA Ajit Doval visited China, while EAM S. Jaishankar met President Xi. The SCO agenda faces tension, as India opposed China's move to exclude the Pahalgam terror attack from a key SCO counterterrorism document. (PC: India Today)
