Bidya Devi Bhandari\u2019s visit to China<\/a> has turned fruitful for the Himalayan nation.<\/p>\nIn the latest update on China\u2019s Belt and Road Initiative, Nepal and China have signed seven different agreements, after an official meeting between Bhandari and the Chinese PM Xi Jinping on April 29, 2019.<\/p>\n
Among the seven agreements, the Protocol on Implementing Agreement on Transit Transport is the most important one. Nepal Foreign Minister Pradeep Gyawali and China Transport Minister Li Xiaopeng signed the landmark agreement on behalf of their respective countries.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The said protocol gives Nepal access to sea without passing the Indian territory. As per the 17-point protocol agreement, Nepal will be able to conduct trade with Nepal through six custom points, namely Tatopani, Kerung, Kimathanka, Korala, Yari and Olangchung Gola. Out of these, Kimathanka, Korala and Olangchung Gola have not been opened officially.<\/p>\n
According to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982, <\/em>Nepal was given unhindered access to sea. However, Nepal\u2019s failure to initiate the Transport and Transit Agreement limited it from availing the UN Convention.<\/p>\nThe two countries also exchanged minutes of meeting on Strengthening Assistance Co-operation in the Field of Livelihood in Nepal\u2019s northern region. As per the agreement, China will provide Nepal NPR 16.5 billion to develop China-aided projects in Nepal.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
They also signed an agreement on economic and technical cooperation. Finance Ministry Revenue Secretary Lal Shankar Ghimire and China International Development Cooperation Agency Wang Xiaotao signed the agreement on behalf of Nepal and China.<\/p>\n
Following is the list of agreements signed by the two convening countries:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Protocol on Implementing Agreement on Transit Transport<\/li>\n
- Handover Certificate of Grant-Aid for the Repair and Reinforcement Project of the Existing China-aided Projects<\/li>\n
- Agreement on Economic and Technical Co-operation<\/li>\n
- Minutes of Meeting on Strengthening Assistance Co-operation in the Field of Livelihood in the Northern Region of Nepal<\/li>\n
- Agreement on Co-operation and Mutual Administrative Assistance in Customs Matters<\/li>\n

- Agreement on Preventing the Theft, Clandestine Excavation and Illicit Import and Export of Cultural Property<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Hope the new deals will pave way for enhanced development in both countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
