Just days after Russian President Vladimir Putin canceled on coming to India for the G20 Summit in Delhi, Chinese PresidentPresidentPresident Xi Jinping has also backed out from coming to the national capital, and the delegation will be led by Chinese Premier Li Qiang instead.

It is almost certain that Chinese President Xi Jinping is going to skip the G20 summit in India next week and Premier Li Qiang is set to represent China at the conclave, people familiar with the development said on Saturday, as per PTI reports.

Earlier, Vladimir Putin had conveyed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi that he would not be attending the G20 Summit in Delhi as he had to keep his focus on the ‘special military operation’ in Ukraine, also skipping out on the G20 Summit in Bali last year in November.
