Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi hailed “steady progress” in improving relations with China after meeting its top diplomat Tuesday following a yearslong standoff between the nuclear-armed Asian powers.

Modi noted “respect for each other’s interests and sensitiveness” in a statement on social media after meeting Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi. China’s foreign ministry said the countries have entered a “steady development track” and should “trust and support” each other.
