NEW DELHI:
India and China have agreed to step up efforts to ensure complete disengagement on the disputed Himalayan border, New Delhi said on Thursday after Indian National Security Advisor Ajit Doval met the Chinese minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Yi in Russia.
“Both sides agreed to work urgently and redouble efforts to achieve complete disengagement in the remaining areas,” the Indian government said in a statement.
Meanwhile, in another development, Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar on Thursday said India’s economic relations with its Chinese neighbor were very “unfair” and “unbalanced”.
Speaking at an event in Geneva, Jaishankar also said that around 75 per cent of the “disengagement” issues at the long and mountainous India-China border had been resolved.
