The meeting was held at Chushul-Moldo border.

"The discussions built on the previous rounds, seeking complete disengagement in the remaining areas along the LAC in Eastern Ladakh as an essential basis for restoration of peace and tranquillity in the India-China border areas," read a statement issued by the MEA.

During the meeting, India and China shared their perspectives on this in the talks held in a friendly and cordial atmosphere.

"The two sides have agreed to maintain communication on the way ahead through the relevant military and diplomatic mechanisms," the statement said.

The two sides also committed to maintain peace and tranquility on the ground in the border areas in the interim.
