VIDEO | Delhi: Nepal's Foreign Minister Shisir Khanal says, "This moment right now in 2026 is the most conducive, highly aligned window we have seen in decades to completely elevate and transform Nepal-India relations. No problem is too large and no boundary too complex when we sit down with an open heart, a rational mind and mutual respect.

आजसम्म नेपालको कुनै पनि परराष्ट्र मन्त्रीले अफिसियल भ्रमणमा भारतीय मिडियामा यति प्रष्टसङ्ग कालापानी, लिपुलेक हाम्रो भुमी हो र, हाम्रो सहमति बिना भारत र चिनले गरेको क्रस बोर्डर सम्झौता लाई ठाडै अस्विकार गरिदिएको पहिलो पटक होला।

I asked Nepal Foreign Minister @shisir if they’ll allow seamless Kailash-Mansarovar Yatra?
Response: Yatra happens through very different border points. Many travel through Nepal. Our concerns are with renewal of the agreement between India and China.

Would not comment on what is happening in India, says Nepal Foreign minister Shisir Khanal when a question was asked at presser on Saturday protest at Jantar Mantar
#WATCH | Delhi: On the key takeaways from his visit, Nepal's Foreign Minister Shisir Khanal says, "I came with two broad objectives. One is to start the highest-level political visits between the two countries. The last visit was almost two years back, and a lot had changed in Nepal over the last year, especially the last few months. So one was to start that highest level engagement. The second was to communicate the new government's priority. I found our engagement with the NSA, the external affairs minister and his team yesterday very productive and engaging. And we've discussed a variety of issues from connectivity, bilateral relationship, to energy and multilateral engagements. So on all fronts, we've discussed very openly through open heart, and we've also discussed about solving the outstanding issues that remain between the two countries through the existing mechanisms that we have, and there are many, many mechanisms, so the first priority is to actually activate those mechanisms."
