Ajit Doval and Wang Yi review bilateral engagement in Delhi
India's National Security Adviser Ajit Doval held talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, focusing on key aspects of bilateral engagement, including progress in the normalization of the ties between the two countries on Wednesday. The talks were held on the sideline of the ongoing 16th BRICS National Security Adviser's Meeting in New Delhi.
In the meeting, Ajit Doval stressed that stable, predictable and constructive bilateral relations will contribute to building trust and better understanding between the two sides. Indian External Affairs Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal said the two sides reviewed recent developments in bilateral relations and underscored progress towards gradual normalization.
India and China rolled out a series of measures in the last over one year to rebuild their relationship after it witnessed a major downturn following the deadly Galwan Valley clashes in 2020 and the subsequent military face-off that lasted for over four years.
In August 2025, Ajit Doval and Wang Yi held a Special Representatives dialogue in New Delhi that produced a number of outcomes to maintain peace along the border. Following a series of diplomatic and military talks, the two sides withdrew their troops from several friction points along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.
