New Delhi:

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday said he held a "good discussion" with US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland on issues like ways to expand bilateral ties, Indo-Pacific and the Ukraine situation.

"Pleased to meet @UnderSecStateP. Good discussion on expanding our bilateral cooperation, on South Asia, Indo-Pacific and the Ukraine situation," Mr Jaishankar tweeted after the meeting.
