Following the meeting in Beijing, Jaishankar will travel to Tianjin for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Council of Foreign Ministers' meeting scheduled for July 15.

This will be Jaishankar’s first visit to China since bilateral relations were taken to their lowest point in six decades by the military standoff in Ladakh.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio will meet Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Kuala Lumpur on Friday, the State Department said, their first in-person meeting at a time of simmering trade tensions between the two major powers.
