  "account": "China's President Xi Jinping may be set to make his first visit to India in seven years when both nations host the BRICS summit in New Delhi next month, according to three sources. The visit would signify a thaw in relations between the two nations, which have been embroiled in border disputes and tensions. Indian officials are working on securing accommodations and security measures for Xi's delegation, which is expected to consist of around 400 officials, compared to fewer than 200 officials during Xi's last visit in 2019. The BRICS summit in New Delhi, scheduled for September 12-13, will focus more on signaling a stabilization of relations than the summit's agenda itself. China has expressed great importance for its participation in the BRICS cooperation and supports India in successfully hosting the event. No information has been provided about Xi's visit by the Chinese Foreign Ministry. India's National Security Advisor Ajit Doval recently visited Beijing to meet with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi to discuss the boundary issue.",
  "summary": "India-China relations have remained strained for years, largely due to ongoing border tensions and territorial disputes.",
