BEIJING — China Foreign Minister Wang Yi said it is hoped that China and India will work in the same direction and explore how the neighbouring countries can get along, according to a statement.

Wang, in talks with his Indian counterpart, said China-India relations have an important impact beyond the bilateral scope, according to the statement released by the Chinese foreign ministry late on Thursday.

"It is in the interests of both sides to get China-India relations back on track," Wang said about the talks with India Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, according to the statement.
