The consensus on setting up of a mechanism for deeper maritime cooperationwas reached during a retreat session hosted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the ten Asean leaders.
“The leaders did agree to establish a mechanism for greater cooperation in the maritime domain sector,” secretary (East) in the ministry of external affairs Preeti Saran said addressing the media.
Saran was asked about deliberations Modi and Asean leaders had during the retreat session.
She said the leaders discussed issues of greater maritime cooperation and addressed both traditional and non-traditional challenges that “all of us face collectively”.
Leaders from 10 Asean countries later attended the India-Asean Commemorative Summit during which a host of issues including ways to further ramp up Asean’s ties with India were discussed.
