External Affairs Minister (EAM) S. Jaishankar met his Australian counterpart Penny Wong in Tokyo, Japan, on Monday, ahead of the Quad Foreign Ministers’ Meeting to discuss the bilateral relations between India and Australia.

“Spoke about further steps to intensify our bilateral ties, including in security, trade and education. Also discussed deepening our practical cooperation across the Indo-Pacific. Look forward to continuing this at the Quad Foreign Ministers’ Meeting shortly,” the EAM added.
