中印總理討論邊界貿易問題

Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his visiting Chinese counterpart have agreed to resolve a border dispute and other tensions, as Premier Li Keqiang continues his first trip abroad since taking office.

Mr. Singh and Mr. Li met Monday in New Delhi to discuss a range of issues, including the longstanding border dispute in the western Himalayas and a trade imbalance that heavily favors China.

At a joint news conference, Mr. Li said the two nations have far more shared interests than differences. Mr. Singh said both sides must work to strengthen trust and confidence in order to permit greater cooperation.

The two leaders signed eight minor agreements, but both men said the meeting's symbolism was important

The three-day visit came less than two weeks after the peaceful end of a tense military standoff over tens of thousands of square kilometers in the disputed Ladakh region. China and India have never finalized their border there, and tensions subsided only when the two sides restored the status quo.印度總理辛格與到訪的中國總理李克強在解決邊界糾紛和其他緊張關係方面達成一致，這是李克強總理任職以來首次出訪國外。

辛格與李克強星期一在新德里討論了包括喜馬拉雅山西部長期的邊界糾紛以及雙邊貿易中有利於中國的貿易失衡等問題。

在聯合新聞發佈會上，李克強說，兩國的共同利益遠遠超過彼此間的分歧。辛格表示，雙方必須合作，加強互信，爭取實現更多的合作。

兩位領導人簽署了8個不太重要的協議，但是他們都表示，這次會晤的象徵意義很重要。

就在李克強總理爲期三天的訪印之行開始之際，兩國剛剛在一個多星期前和平結束涉及有爭議的拉達克地區數千平方公里土地的邊界糾紛。中國和印度從來沒有最後劃定那裏的邊界線，雙方恢復了邊境現狀之後，緊張才得以緩和。
