US and Chinese defense chiefs will meet next week as military exercises around Taiwan end

US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will meet his Chinese counterpart next week, the Pentagon said on Friday, as Beijing wrapped up two days of large-scale military exercises around Taiwan.

The US Department of Defense said Austin will travel to Singapore next week for the Shangri-La Dialogue security conference, where he will hold face-to-face talks with Chinese Defense Minister Dong Jun for the first time.

The U.S. and Chinese defense chiefs held talks last month for the first time in nearly a year and a half as the two sides try to rebuild frayed military-to-military ties and manage their increasingly tense relationship.
