The two leaders met on the sidelines of the Quad Foreign Ministers’ meeting in Tokyo.

“Great to catch up with @SecBlinken in Tokyo today. Our bilateral agenda progresses steadily. Also had a wide-ranging discussion on regional and global issues. Look forward to attending the Quad FMM tomorrow,” Jaishankar posted on X.
