Welcomed Politburo member and Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Delhi this evening.

Highlighted that our relations are best guided by the three mutuals – mutual respect, mutual sensitivity and mutual interest.

As we seek to move ahead from a difficult period in our ties, it needs a candid and constructive approach from both sides.

Had productive conversations on our economic and trade issues, pilgrimages, people-to-people contacts, river data sharing, border trade, connectivity and bilateral exchanges. Also exchanged views on global and regional issues.

Confident that our discussions today would contribute to building a stable, cooperative and forward-looking relationship between India and China:
