Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

Around October 12, 2019, China signed an agreement to provide the Nepal army with about $21 million in unspecified disaster relief materials over the next three years, as Beijing strengthens its ties with Kathmandu. The agreement on disaster relief was signed by Nepali defense minister Ishwar Pokharel and his counterpart Wei Fenghe, as a part of Xi Jinping's visit to Nepal.
