India not excluded from peace process in Afghanistan: China

Representatives of China, Russia, and the US held their 3rd consultation on the Afghan peace process in Beijing on July 10-11 following which they also requested Pakistan to join for a surprise quadrilateral meeting.

Asked why India was not invited to the meeting, Khalilzad said “China has been in close communication and coordination with all parties including India” on the Afghanistan issue.

India has not been excluded from the efforts to bring peace in Afghanistan, China said Monday, days after it hosted a key meeting with the US, Russia and Pakistan on facilitating the peace process in the war-torn country.
