Significantly, the announcement came even as Wang was representing China at the BRICS NSAs (National Security Advisers) meeting in South Africa. He also held a meeting with India's NSA Ajit Doval on the sidelines.
According to the State Department, Blinken also discussed with his Chinese counterpart the recovery of the global GDP in light of inflation and supply chain disruptions.
Jaishankar met his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi Last night on the margins of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit in the Tajik capital of Dushanbe.

Jaishankar earlier on Monday said that India and China 'should not allow differences to hamper their bilateral relationship'.
In his remarks, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Beijing is closely following the escalation of tensions between India and Pakistan and urged New Delhi to maintain peace and stability.
Earlier on Wednesday, China’s Ambassador to Pakistan Yao Jing had said that Jammu and Kashmir was an 'internationally recognized disputed territory'.
Australia, notably angered Beijing when it banned Chinese tech giant Huawei from participating in its 5G network last August over security fears.
Pompeo also rejected Huawei's statements about its relationship with China's government and said any data touched by the company is "at risk" of falling into the wrong hands.
