Chinese President Xi Jinping's decision to skip the G20 summit is being seen in host India as a snub to New Delhi and a new setback to the already frozen relations between the nuclear-armed Asian giants. Neither country has commented on Xi deciding to stay away, but analysts said the decision added to existing irritants, including a military stand-off on their Himalayan border and India insisting that the rest of the relationship cannot move forward without a resolution on the frontier. India's foreign ministry spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment on Tuesday on Beijing's decision to send Premier Li Qiang for the Sept. 9-10 summit instead of Xi.
