India–China
Not met yet — counts as met once you answer a question on it.
Sino-Indian bilateral relations span border disputes along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), the McMahon Line, and the Galwan 2020 confrontation, alongside a structured Disengagement Agreement process. Border management is governed by accords signed in 1993, 1996, and 2005. China is India's top trading partner, and the relationship carries a security-vs-economic engagement dilemma. Strategic competition extends into the Indo-Pacific, where China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) contrasts with India's counter-connectivity initiatives. BRICS and SCO provide platforms for convergence.
