There are new threats that the international community face to-day. The scourge of narco-terrorism is casting a dark shadow across many parts of Asia and the world. India has taken initiative at the United Nations for an international convention to counter this threat. We believe that it is in the interests of all nations, including India and China, to work together to eliminate the threat of international terrorism. India seeks good relations with all its neighbours.
China is our biggest and most important neighbour.
It is perhaps inevitable that there would be some differences between neighbours. Between India and China too there are differences. That does not mean that these differences cannot be resolved. Our two countries have been engaged in a dialogue in resolving these differences. Apart from this, the compulsions of the present and the vision of the future drive us towards co-operation.
