Jaishankar meets China's Wang Yi amid strain in ties

Video footage from the Munich Security Conference showed Jaishankar and Wang having a brief chat on the sidelines of the event attended by top diplomats from across the world. However, there has been no official word on their discussion from both capitals.

This was the first meeting between the two leaders in over six months. The two last met in July in the Indonesian capital Jakarta at the ASEAN Regional Forum. The India-China relations have remained frozen since May 2020 when the People's Liberation Army (PLA) amassed troops in eastern Ladakh led to a deadly clash.
