Vijay Prashad, director of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, a network of research institutes in the Global South, said he strongly suggested that Modi attend the parade in Beijing on September 3 and commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II with China and Russia.
“[China, India, and Russia] can hold a tripartite meeting and, by leveraging the power of Russia as an ally, effectively resolve the differences between China and India,” Prashad said during a live show hosted by Chinese media outlet Guancha.cn on July 26.
He also described the China-India border dispute as a “political issue” that was “solvable”.
However, observers said Modi was not likely to take part, despite the recent thaw in China-India relations.
