India's Modi to visit China for first time in 7 years as tensions with US rise
Channel News Asia ^ | 06 Aug 2025

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit China for the first time in over seven years, a government source said on Wednesday (Aug 6), in a further sign of a diplomatic thaw with Beijing as tensions with the United States rise.

Modi will go to China for a summit of the multilateral Shanghai Cooperation Organisation that begins on Aug 31, the government source, with direct knowledge of the matter, told Reuters. India's foreign ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

His trip will come at a time when India's relationship with the US faces its most serious crisis in years after President Donald Trump imposed the highest tariffs among Asian peers on goods imported from India, and has threatened an unspecified further penalty for New Delhi's purchases of Russian oil.

“Tensions’’? Tell India to take back all it’s people here and send them to China.

India has a blocked currency.

When it buys oil from Russians those Russians get rupees which can only be used to buy Indian stuff.

India only makes a few things Russia doesn’t make for itself - such as cashews, Basmati rice, and some spices.

India does make CNC machine tools, and towels, bed linens, cast iron pipe fittings, etc.

At this point, what India could provide Russia won’t change the course of the war as Russia has almost certainly loaded up on machine tools.

Someone has suggested that Trump should ask India not to sell outside of India refinery products of Russian source crude oil.

“Tell India to take back all it’s people here and send them to China.”

That would drop Silicon Valley & Seattle area tech development ability into Xi’s hands.

They’re already there thanks to Clinton giving everybody, including the Chinks, sleep overs in The Lincoln Bedroom

and Swawell and his “Fang Fang’’ cutie and Dianne Feinstein and her Chinese spy limo driver.

Don’t kid yourself.

Don’t know all 350 million Americans are too dumb to work in companies started in America and attend American universities. We need to import our replacements from hostile alien cultures.

Lots of good Indians have legally immigrated here and become good Americans. It’s all the H1B’s, interlopers, and many other assorted unwanteds who need to gtfo.

One reason Americans are less likable than they used to be, is because so many Americans are now immigrants who aren’t as likable as the core Americans they are replacing.

One of the great losses is the inborn trust that used to be the atmosphere of America, almost everyone we dealt with, we trusted.

Multiculturalism creates low trust societies.

I work in a hospital in southern NJ, about 80 miles south of NYC.

At least a 1/4 of the doctors in this hospital are East Indian. And any doctors office you visit in the surrounding area that's all there is- East Indian doctors and their nasty wives as the receptionist. Another quarter are Filipino, and more than a few Slaves.

There are very few native born White doctors in this place and the nursing staff is about 50% Filipino.

Yup. You’re right.

Bring in a lot of hostile looking gits who not only DON’T like you, they don’t look like you, they don’t act or think as you do or even live and work as you do.

Yeah. Recipe for superpower status.

Oh yeah, and make SURE they don’t speak your language so you can spend BOATLOADS of money on translating devices for these idiots.

“Don’t know all 350 million Americans are too dumb to work in companies started in America and attend American universities.”

Like most here, I suspect that you haven’t spent much time at US universities, but if you do take a gander you’ll be able to count the number of Americans you see there on one hand.

(calm down, Zeepers, it’s called an exaggeration, look it up)

“There are very few native born White doctors in this place and the nursing staff is about 50% Filipino.”

Intelligent Whites do more productive work, like suing companies and skimming money off of old people with a nest egg.
