New Delhi: Talks between Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh failed to yield any breakthrough today on India’s key concerns—stapled visa to people of Jammu and Kashmir and terrorism emanating from Pakistan– and in getting support for its bid for a UNSC permanent seat.
Wen, who is on a fence-mending mission after one year of unease in bilateral ties, held talks with Singh for over one hour during which bilateral, regional and global issues were discussed.
Though the issue of stapled visa did not figure in the joint communique, Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao told reporters after the talks that the Chinese Premier himself raised the issue and suggested that officials from both the countries should have in-depth consultations to resolve the issue.
