The broader Indian engagement in China this week also included high-level diplomatic and defence dialogues. On Friday, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh met his Chinese counterpart Admiral Dong Jun on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Defence Ministers Meeting. During the meeting, Singh stressed the need for effective border management and a permanent resolution to the boundary issue by revitalising the existing mechanisms between the two countries.
During the meeting, the two leaders held 'in-depth discussions' on the need to maintain peace and tranquillity along the Indo-China border. Rajnath Singh acknowledged the work being undertaken by the two nations to bring back a semblance of normalcy in the bilateral relations, according to the Ministry of Defence press release.
Rajnath Singh highlighted the necessity of solving complex issues through a structured roadmap of permanent engagement and de-escalation. He emphasised the need to create good neighbourly conditions to achieve the best mutual benefits and to cooperate for stability in Asia and the world. He called for bridging the trust deficit created after the 2020 Border standoff by taking action on the ground.
In a press release, the Ministry of Defence stated, 'The two Ministers agreed to continue consultations at various levels to achieve progress on issues related to disengagement, de-escalation, border management and eventual delimitation through existing mechanisms.'
India and China had reached an agreement in October on patrolling arrangements in the Depsang Plains and Demchok, two friction points along the Line of Actual Control (LAC). The understanding was reached after earlier disengagement in other friction points in eastern Ladakh following meetings at diplomatic and military levels.
During the meeting with his Chinese counterpart, Rajnath Singh appreciated the resumption of the Kailash Manasarovar yatra after a gap of five years. He highlighted the important milestone of reaching 75 years since the establishment of diplomatic ties between the two countries.
He also briefed his Chinese counterpart on the terrorist attack carried out against innocent civilians in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam on April 22 and India's Operation Sindoor aimed at dismantling the terrorist networks in Pakistan, according to the Ministry of Defence press release.
In a post on X, Singh stated, 'Held talks with Admiral Dong Jun, the Defence Minister of China, on the sidelines of the SCO Defence Ministers' Meeting in Qingdao. We had a constructive and forward-looking exchange of views on issues about bilateral relations. Expressed my happiness at the restarting of the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra after a gap of nearly six years. It is incumbent on both sides to maintain this positive momentum and avoid adding new complexities in the bilateral relationship.'
Rajnath Singh gifted a Madhubani painting from Bihar to his Chinese counterpart, General Dong Jun, during their meeting on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Defence Ministers Meeting in China's Qingdao.
This painting has its origins in the Mithila region of Bihar. It is also known as Mithila or Madhubani art. It is characterised by line drawings filled in with bright colours and contrasts or patterns. These paintings are popular because of their tribal motifs and use of bright, earthy colours. (ANI)

Donald Trump says he has a buyer for TikTok, but won't reveal who for ‘two weeks'
US President Donald Trump has stated that he has identified a buyer for the US arm of the Chinese short-video app TikTok but won't provide the details for another two weeks. Trump noted that the ByteDance-owned app will be purchased in the US by a 'group of very wealthy people' during a recent interview with Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo. 'We have a buyer for TikTok, by the way. I think I'll need probably China approval and I think President Xi will probably do it,' Trump added in the interview. The US President had also shown his inclination to extend the deadline for the TikTok ban for the third consecutive time, which would give the company time to sell its US assets within 90 days beyond 19 June. As per Bloomberg, a deal was close to being struck for the US arm of TikTok before Trump announced his so-called reciprocal tariffs in April. The deal was reportedly being advanced by a consortium of US investors, which included the likes of Oracle Corp., Blackstone Inc., and venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. Since the announcement of tariffs, however, there has been little movement on the sale of TikTok as tensions between the US and China rose over tariff negotiations. A bipartisan law was passed by the US Congress last year required the sale of TikTok to US buyers or a ban on the popular social media app owing to national security concerns arising from its Chinese connections. The app was briefly banned in the US before Trump took office, but the Republican leader quickly gave an extension that allowed it to operate in the US. Notably, the scrutiny on TikTok had begun during Trump's first term when the Republican leader sought a ban on the app. Since then, however, he has reversed his position as he believes that TikTok helped him win support with young voters during the elections last year. "I have a little warm spot in my heart for TikTok," Trump said in an interview with NBC in May.

"Have A Buyer For TikTok," Says Trump But He Won't Divulge Name
President Donald Trump said he has identified a buyer for the US operations of TikTok, the social media app owned by Chinese company ByteDance Ltd., but he won't provide details for two weeks. "We have a buyer for Tiktok, by the way. I think I'll need probably China approval and I think President Xi will probably do it," he said, referring to Chinese leader Xi Jinping, in an interview on Fox News's Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo. "It's a group of very wealthy people." The interview, which aired Sunday, was taped on Friday. Trump earlier said he would extend for the third time a deadline for ByteDance to sell the US portions of TikTok, which would give the company 90 days beyond June 19. Congress passed a law last year requiring the divestiture, citing national security concerns. Under the law, the president was allowed to invoke one extension. Movement on a deal has largely stalled with US-China trade relations swept up in larger tensions over tariff negotiations. Before Trump announced widespread tariffs in April, a deal was reportedly close, advanced by a consortium of US investors including Oracle Corp., Blackstone Inc. and venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. The White House didn't respond to a request for more details on Trump's latest remarks.
