Cronologia dezastrului: Nepalul observase riscurile ghețarilor și acuză China că nu a transmis suficiente date la timp. Beijingul neagă
Three months before a devastating flood in the Himalayas, officials from Nepal and China met to discuss disaster risk management. They aimed to enhance cooperation on monitoring glacial risks and weather phenomena. However, Nepalese officials expressed concerns over insufficient data sharing from China, which could hinder disaster preparedness. Despite the meeting, no formal agreement was reached, and both sides acknowledged the need for improved communication. The recent disaster, triggered by a glacier collapse, highlighted the urgency of effective early warning systems and better collaboration between the two nations.
