Headlines: MEA S Jaishankar Welcomes Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto At SCO
Description
Minister of External Affairs S Jaishankar today welcomed his Pakistani counterpart Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari in Goa at a conclave of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO). Visuals showed the foreign ministers' customary greeting with folded hands before the two posed for pictures and Mr Jaishankar directed him to the venue. Bilawal Bhutto has become the first senior leader from the neighbouring country to visit India in almost 12 years. However, there's no confirmation yet of a bilateral between India and Pakistan's Foreign Ministers. Mr Bhutto's visit to India to attend the SCO Council of Foreign Ministers (CFM) meeting comes amid continuing strain in ties between the two countries on a host of issues, including Islamabad's use of cross-border terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir.
