Speaking on the condition of anonymity, he also said the communication gap between Beijing and the Chinese Embassy was also growing, according to the Annapurna Express article.Nepal's federal Parliament ratified the compact, but in the run-up to ratification, Beijing tried hard to stop it.It sees the USD 500 million development grant to Nepal as a part of America's strategy to encircle China, the article noted.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
