India's Ministry of External Affairs expressed gratitude to China for their message of solidarity following the devastating landslides in Wayanad, Kerala. Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal acknowledged China's condolences and sympathies for the affected families. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs had previously issued a statement on July 31, offering condolences and wishing for a swift recovery for the injured. This gesture comes amid strained relations between the two nations, which have recently engaged in “in-depth and constructive” diplomatic talks on border issues. The landslides, triggered by heavy rains, have claimed 308 lives and prompted international support and relief efforts.
