Updated:10 months ago

Kathmandu (Nepal), September 04 (ANI): Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli arrived in Kathmandu on Thursday after attending the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in China, where discussions ranged from regional security to development cooperation. Shortly after his return, Nepal firmly dismissed China’s claim that it had agreed to back Beijing’s Global Security Initiative (GSI) during Oli’s visit. Addressing the matter, Nepal's Foreign Secretary Amrit Bahadur Rai clarified that Nepal has only supported the Global Development Initiative (GDI) and not the GSI or Global Civilisation Initiative (GCI). Nepal maintains a non-aligned foreign policy and has consistently rejected the GSI, citing that it contradicts the country's stance on avoiding strategic and security alliances. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated on 30 August, following the meeting between Nepali Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and Chinese President Xi Jinping, that Nepal expressed support for China's Global Security Initiative (GSI). Among these initiatives, some GDI programs have already been implemented in Nepal. But Nepal has consistently rejected the GSI, saying it contradicts the country's non-aligned foreign policy.
