External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar will hold talks with Foreign Ministers of China and Russia, and Uzbekistan and Secretary General of the eight-nation Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Zhang Ming on May 4.
He will also come face to face with Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari for the first time since they had a verbal spat at the U.N. Security Council in December.
The Ministers, including the FMs of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan will all hold bilateral meetings during the day and attend a cultural performance and dinner hosted by Mr. Jaishankar at the Taj Exotica resort in South Goa in the evening, events that could see some awkward moments given strains between many of the member countries.
