China and India will hold the second round of strategic economic talks in New Delhi on Nov. 26, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson confirmed Tuesday.

Zhang Ping, head of China's National Development and Reform Commission, and Indian Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia will co-chair the dialogue.

At a daily press briefing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying briefed reporters on the talks.

Hua said the dialogue constituted an important part of the "Year of China-India Friendship and Cooperation" activities.

The two sides will exchange views to seek broader economic cooperation and promote coordination on macroeconomic policy. They will also strenghten cooperation in areas such as investment, infrastructure, high-technology, energy-saving and energy resources.

China and India held the first round of the strategic economic dialogue in Sept. 2011.

When responding to a question on border issues, Hua said specific information of the new round of meetings between special representatives on China-India border issues will be released at an appropriate time.

China and India experienced a border conflict in 1962.

The two countries launched the mechanism of meetings between special representatives on border issues in 2003. The previous round of meetings on border issues was held in India in January.
