Earlier in the day, S Jaishankar met with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and said that it is always good to meet.
"Always good to meet. There's a lot we need to talk about and it is actually been a very busy year, we had a very good Quad and since then I think a number of developments all over the world...," Jaishnakar told Blinken in Phnom Penh.
Referring to the meeting, Blinken said that this is an opportunity for both the leaders to compare notes on mutual interest areas including a free and open Indo-Pacific as well as the Sri Lankan crisis.
