Need to counter terror: Doval meets Wang Yi in Beijing
National Security Adviser Ajit Doval on Monday emphasised the need to counter terrorism in all its forms for overall regional peace and stability during a meeting with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Beijing.
Doval is on a visit to China to attend a conclave of top national security officials of the member nations of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO).
In a statement, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said both sides reviewed recent developments in India-China bilateral relations and underscored the need to promote the overall development of the bilateral ties, including by fostering greater people to people engagement.
Doval and Wang also exchanged views on other bilateral, regional and global issues of mutual interest. “The NSA noted that he looked forward to meeting with Wang Yi in India at a mutually convenient date for the 24th round of the Special Representative (SR) talks,” it said.
Doval and Wang Yi are special representatives (SRs) on the pending boundary question. The SRs were tasked by PM Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping in October last year to work out a formula to resolve the boundary issues.
