Arun Jaitley meets Chinese counterpart

The two ministers talked about bilateral economic cooperation, G20 and BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) as well as global macroeconomic situation, a statement from the Indian embassy here said.

Jaitley, who arrived here on June 23, is scheduled to attend the annual Financial Dialogue at the ministerial level with Lou on June 27.  The dialogue at the level of finance secretaries has been postponed to July because of inability of India’s Economic Affairs Secretary Shaktikanta Das to travel to Beijing for the meeting. Das was asked to stay in Delhi to deal with implications of the ‘Brexit’ vote for India.
