India Sends Top Security Adviser to Beijing While Trump Tariffs Bite Over Russian Oil

India Sends Top Security Adviser to Beijing While Trump Tariffs Bite Over Russian Oil
India's National Security Advisor Ajit Doval heads to Beijing this week for border talks with China, part of a broader thaw that includes Modi's planned trip to a China-hosted summit. The timing lines up with a fresh 25 percent U.S. tariff Trump slapped on India for buying Russian oil, and it's fair to ask whether New Delhi is hedging its bets or just managing a border dispute that predates any of this.

National Security Advisor Ajit Doval is scheduled to arrive in Beijing on Monday, August 24, for the 25th round of India-China Special Representatives talks on the two countries' long-running border dispute, according to The Hindu, The New Indian Express and the Times of India, all citing official Indian sources. Doval will meet his Chinese counterpart, Foreign Minister Wang Yi, with the formal talks set for Tuesday, August 25.
