It is the first in-person meeting at this level between the two sides in 18 months.
US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun began their meeting at 12.50pm on May 31 at the Shangri-La Hotel.
Plans to convene a crisis communications working group by year-end were discussed, said the Pentagon in a statement after the meeting, while the Chinese at a press briefing called for exchanges between military scholars to build trust. For his part, Admiral Dong presented China’s positions on a range of hot-button issues, including Taiwan, South China Sea, the Ukraine crisis and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, to his US counterpart, Chinese defence ministry spokesman Wu Qian told reporters after the meeting.
But ties between the two major powers remain rocky, with the US banning the Chinese-owned TikTok and accusing China of dumping excess electric vehicles in other markets, China being seen as supporting Russia in its war against Ukraine, and the Taiwan Strait becoming a flashpoint between the two sides.
US has repeatedly called for “guardrails” to manage the military ties and prevent accidental escalation.
