External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will travel to China on a four-day visit starting Saturday during which she will hold talks with her Chinese counterpart Wang Yi and attend Russia-India-China trilateral as well as India-China media forum.
During the visit, which comes within a week of US President Barack Obama's three-day visit to Delhi, Swaraj will "discuss bilateral, regional and global issues of concern to both sides" with her Chinese counterpart, MEA said in a statement today.
The two sides will also explore the possibility of a visit by Prime Minister Narendra Modi later this year. Both Chinese President Xi Jinping and Wang had visited India last year immediately after the installation of the Modi government.
