Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday exchanged greetings at the G20 dinner in Bali, Indonesia. This is the first time both leaders have exchanged greetings since the tension broke out at the border in Ladakh in 2020. There were expectations that both leaders could meet at the SCO Summit held between 15 and 16 September 2022 in Samarkand, Uzbekistan but that did not happen.
