Chinese President Xi Jinping and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, as the only two people managing more than a billion people, have plenty to talk about.

They’ll get that chance during Modi’s first official visit to China from May 14 to May 16, when he’ll travel to Xi’an, Beijing and Shanghai. Likely agenda items include defense concerns, particularly over China-friend and India-foe Pakistan, bilateral trade on which India has had the short stick for years, high-speed trains and the Silk Road revival.
