India to join June 23 trilateral meeting with Russia, China

India will take part in a trilateral meeting with Russia and China next week, India's foreign ministry said on Thursday, days after Indian and Chinese troops clashed on a remote Himalayan border, leaving at least 20 people dead.

India's foreign minister, Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, will join the June 23 meeting, which will be held virtually, ministry spokesman Anurag Srivastava told reporters in New Delhi.

Srivavstava also said that no soldier was missing in action.

India and China have blamed each other for the border clash, the deadliest in several decades, which came as both sides were attempting to resolve their weeks-long standoff in the Ladakh region.
