Kathmandu, Nepal: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) has refuted a news report published in various national and international media on Wednesday that Chinese President Xi Jinping postponed his purported Nepal visit.
The news reports about the proposed visit of the Chinese President XI Jinping was postponed is baseless, the MoFa has said issuing a press statement on Wednesday.
It was stated in the news report that the Chinese Ambassador to Nepal informed the Foreign Ministry Secretary and high-ranking officials of Nepal.
The news report also states that the visit was postponed as Nepal lacked preparations for the top-level visit on its part. However, the MoFa has also refused the report.
It was also a baseless rumor that Nepal government was not making any preparations to that regard, states the press release.
It is expected that Chinese President Xi would visit Nepal while he is scheduled to attend a BRICS Summit along with the heads of state/government of Brazil, Russia, India and South Africa, on October 15-16 in New Delhi.
However, the Chinese government has not made official statement regarding the scheduled visit.
The report about the cancelation of visit before fixing the date to visit is taken importantly in the political and diplomatic levels.
