03:23mutual interest.

03:25Having seen a difficult period in our relationship, Excellency, our two nations now seek to move

03:33ahead.

03:34This requires a candid and constructive approach from both sides.

03:39In that endeavor, we must be guided by the three mutuals, mutual respect, mutual sensitivity,

03:45and mutual interest.

03:47Differences must not become disputes nor competition conflict.

03:52Today, our talks will cover economic and trade issues, pilgrimages, people-to-people contacts,

04:00river data sharing, border trade, connectivity, and bilateral exchanges.

04:06I would like to follow up on some particular concerns that I had brought up with you, Excellency,

04:11when I visited China in July.

04:15You, Excellency, will also be discussing, of course be discussing, border issues with our

04:20special representative, National Security Advisor Ajit Dabal, tomorrow.

04:25This is very important because the basis for any positive momentum in our ties is the ability

04:31to jointly maintain peace and tranquility in the border areas.

04:36It is also essential that the de-escalation process move forward.

04:42Excellency, when the world's two largest nations meet, it is natural that the international situation

04:50will be discussed.

04:51We seek a fair, balanced, and multipolar world order, including a multipolar Asia.

05:00Reform multilateralism is also the call of the day.

05:04In the current environment, there is clearly the imperative of maintaining and enhancing

05:12stability in the global economy as well.

05:16The fight against terrorism in all its forms and manifestations is another major priority.

05:21I look forward to our exchange of views.

05:25Overall, it is our expectation that our discussions would contribute to building a stable, cooperative,

05:32and forward-looking relationship between India and China, one that serves both our interests

05:39and addresses our concerns.

05:42You are visiting India, Excellency, shortly before the SEO summit that China is hosting in Tianjin.

05:49We have worked closely with the Chinese side during its presidency.

05:53We wish you a successful summit with strong outcomes and decisions.

05:58Once again, a warm welcome to India, and I look forward to hearing your opening remarks.
