New Delhi: Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jeichi is in Delhi on a two-day visit and will hold discussions with his Indian counterpart SM Krishna on Thursday. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said bilateral and international issues will be discussed as will the next month's BRICS summit, which will be attended by Chinese President Hu Jintao.

Jeichi reached India on Wednesday and he will hold talks with the Indian leadership over a host of bilateral and international issues during his two-day visit.

Significantly, the visit comes in the backdrop of recent acrimony over Defence Minister AK Antony's visit to Arunachal Pradesh to attend statehood celebrations. China had asked India not to complicate the boundary issue after defence minister AK Antony visited the state.


Asked if the issue will figure in his talks in India, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hong Lei said his earlier comments that nothing should be done to 'complicate' the border issue remain valid.

"... I want to point out that on the China, India boundary question including the disputed eastern section of the boundary, China's position has been consistent and clear.

"We hope to seek reasonable and acceptable plan through dialogue and negotiations pending final settlement. The two sides should make joint efforts to ensure peace and stability of border area instead of taking actions that complicate the issue," he said.

NEW DELHI: About a dozen Tibetans, including women, on Thursday staged a protest outside the Hyderabad House here objecting to the border talks between India and China claiming that Beijing cannot discuss the issue before giving freedom to Tibet.

Draped in Tibetan flags and carrying anti-China placards, the protesters assembled in front of the Hyderabad House near India Gate in the morning where external affairs minister S M Krishna was holding bilateral talks with his Chinese counterpart Yang Jiechi.

Anticipating protests, a number of police personnel were deployed in the area and they immediately detained the demonstrators who were shouting slogans demanding freedom for Tibet.

"We have detained the protesters, including women. We have taken them to a nearby police station," a senior police official said.

One of the protesters said China cannot discuss the issue before giving freedom to Tibet. "It is ridiculous for China to have talks with India before giving us freedom," he said.

Tsultrim Dorjee Rangzen, a Tibetan student from Delhi University, harmed himself in protest, casting a stone onto his own head. The result was a severe head wound, yet it did not stop Tsultrim from continuing to loudly protest against the Chinese occupation of Tibet.

When is India gonna grow balls and arm Tibetans?

Quite right. Perhaps after next election when UPA is out of office.
