India’s foreign minister S Jaishankar, who is on an official visit to the UK, met the new foreign secretary on Monday and held a discussion on “realising the full potential of our strategic partnership”.
UK’s Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had to rejig his cabinet and sack Suella Braverman after she wrote an article accusing the police of being soft in its treatment of protesters at pro-Palestinian demonstrations who engage in aggression and break the law.
