External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar arrives in Beijing for critical talks with Chinese counterpart Wang Yi—the first visit since the 2020 Ladakh military clash that brought ties to their lowest in six decades. The agenda: defusing tensions, troop withdrawal along the Line of Actual Control, and rebuilding trade and cultural links.
Afterwards, Jaishankar heads to Tianjin for the SCO foreign ministers meeting (July 14–15), where a joint communique is uncertain after India blocked defence ministers’ support over Pakistan's Pahalgam reference. Ahead of Beijing, he also met Singapore’s leaders to boost investment, semiconductors, infrastructure, and Indo‑Pacific cooperation. This mission aims to reset Indo‑China relations, counter global uncertainty, and reaffirm India’s strategic weight in multilateral diplomacy.
