Chinese President Xi Jinping is not expected to attend the G20 summit in India next week and will send Prime Minister Li Qiang in his place, a senior European Union official said on Thursday.
“My last information… was that Xi did not intend to visit, he would be the prime minister,” the official told reporters in Brussels ahead of the September 9-10 summit in New Delhi.
Xi and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi held face-to-face talks at the BRICS grouping summit in South Africa last week, but tensions remain high between the Asian giants.
