The meeting comes hours after India and China agreed to restore patrolling rights to each other in the Depsang Plains and Demchok region, thereby making significant headway in efforts to resolve the military standoff along the Line of Actual Control in eastern Ladakh.

The two leaders met for an informal summit in Mahabalipuram in October 2019, months before the Chinese incursions in eastern Ladakh that triggered a military standoff along the LAC.  They did have pull-aside meetings in Bali (2022) and Johannesburg (2023), but the Wednesday meeting is the first proper and structured bilateral meeting.
