On Thursday, German National Security Advisor Jens Pltner engaged in private discussions with his Indian counterpart Ajit Doval and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, all in preparation for Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s upcoming visit to India in the coming month.

The partner’s journey to India occurred several weeks following Jaishankar’s visit to Berlin.

“It’s a delight to have the chance to meet Jens Pltner, who serves as the Security & Foreign Policy Advisor to the @Bundeskanzler. We’ve extended our discussions from last month in Berlin and reviewed the progress on the preparations for the forthcoming India-Germany IGC,” Jaishankar mentioned.

The IGC serves as the premier platform for discussions on the relationship between India and Germany.

The German envoy in India, Philipp Ackermann, mentioned that Planter’s discussion with Doval was “productive.”
