China and India pledged on Monday to deepen military exchanges during a visit by Indian Defense Minister Pranab Mukherjee, the latest sign of warming relations between the neighbors and one-time foes.
China’s Defense Minister Cao Gangchuan said China supported greater cooperation with India, the official Xinhua news agency reported, following talks between the two. It did not give any details.
The world’s most populous nations, China and India fought a border war in 1962, and Delhi has been suspicious of China’s traditionally close ties with its South Asian rival, Pakistan.
