Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli will be embarking on an official visit to China in mid-June.

According to a high-level government official, the Prime Minister will visit the northern neighbour on June 19. The official announcement, however, is yet to be made.

Prime Minister Oli wanted to visit China during the two-day Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Conference to be held on June 9. If that were possible, the Prime Minister would get an opportunity to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin. However, officials say the plan could not materialise due to undisclosed reasons. Hence, the Chinese government is preparing to welcome the Nepali Prime Minister on June 19.

Minister for Foreign Affairs Pradeep Gyawali has already visited China to prepare for the Prime Minister’s visit.
