Beijing (TDI): Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri called on Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Monday in Beijing.
During the meeting, Wang stressed that the improvement and development of China-India ties are fully in line with the fundamental interests of the two nations and peoples and are conducive to safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of Global South.
He said that since the meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi last year in Kazan, the two countries have earnestly implemented the important consensus reached by the two leaders, engaged in positive interactions at all levels and accelerated the process of improving China-India ties.
Mutual Trust, Cooperation
Wang said China and India should exploit the opportunity to meet each other halfway, explore more substantive initiatives, and commit themselves to mutual understanding, mutual support and mutual achievement, rather than mutual suspicion, alienation and mutual depletion.
The improvement and development of China-Indian ties are fully in line with the fundamental interests of the two nations and peoples, conducive to safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the Global South countries, and conducive to the contribution of the two ancient civilizations to peace, stability and development in Asia and the world, Wang told Misri.
