Focus On Implementing Past Accords

Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, scheduled to visit China in the first week of December, is likely to emphasise implementing various past agreements reached between Nepal and China. During Prime Minister Oli's previous trips, Nepal and China inked a number of agreements aimed at accelerating Nepal's economic growth and improving Nepal-China ties. The past accords centred on trade and commerce, infrastructure, and connectivity. Nepal's reliance on Indian ports was reduced by the Trade and Transit Agreement, which permitted Nepal to trade through Chinese ports.
