SINGAPORE, JUNE 21 . The External Affairs Minister, K. Natwar Singh, and the Chinese Foreign Minister, Li Zhaoxing, today expressed satisfaction over the upturn in bilateral ties and agreed to enhance relations. The two leaders, attending the Asian Cooperation Dialogue (ACD) at the Chinese city of Qingdao, met for the first time since the assumption of office by a new Government in New Delhi. They reviewed the overall state of interactions. While they did not appear to have gone into specific issues in detail during their 35-minute meeting, the two leaders were understood to have expressed the hope of sustaining the border talks. Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Mr. Li said China and India "will work together for the further promotion and enhancement of [their] good relations."
