PM Modi, Xi Jinping agreed to cherish, implement Wuhan consensus: China

TIL Desk/World/Beijing/ China presented an upbeat picture of the talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Xi Jinping at Qingdao, saying they agreed to “cherish” the “positive momentum” generated by their Wuhan meeting and implement the “important consensus” reached at the summit.

Modi and Xi on June 9 held talks on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in the port city of Qingdao. The meeting covered key aspects of the bilateral engagement, reflecting the resolve by the two countries to reset relations and bring back trust in their ties, hit by the Dokalam standoff and several other thorny issues.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang during a media briefing here today said, “The two leaders exchanged views on bilateral relations and issues of mutual interests. They also reached important consensus.”

“Both leaders believe that their informal summit in Wuhan played a positive role in moving forward the bilateral cooperation,” he said, responding a question on Modi-Xi meeting on the sidelines of the just-concluded Qingdao summit of the SCO.
