China’s Foreign Minister talks to Jaishankar over phone
The foreign ministers of India and China have agreed to establish a new hotline to ensure “timely communication” in the wake of last year s border crisis, but differed sharply on the way forward to restore relations in a 75-minute phone call on Thursday.
External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar told his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, “bilateral relations have been impacted severely over last year” and that while “the Boundary Question may take time to resolve”, the “disturbance of peace and tranquility, including by violence, will inevitably have a damaging impact on the relationship.”
NEW DELHI: India was strong and resolute when it came to handling the border issue and dealt with it in an effective manner, external affairs minister S Jaishankar said on Friday in an apparent reference to the standoff between India and China.
Similarly, India also dealt effectively with the Covid-19 pandemic and its economic impact by fashioning its own response after listening to everyone, he said at the inaugural session of the Asia Economic Dialogue organised by the Pune International Centre. Last year, we had three big developments which all impacted us nationally. They impacted the world as well one was Covid-19, the second was its economic impact and the third was the challenges that we found on our border which obviously had implications, the External Affairs Minister said.
