External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and her American counterpart Mike Pompeo have agreed to reschedule the postponed ‘2+2 dialogue’ at a mutually convenient time and location as soon as possible, a State Department spokesperson said. Ms Swaraj and Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman were earlier scheduled to travel to the United States to take part in the meeting with Mr Pompeo and Secretary of Defense James Mattis on July 6. But, Mr Pompeo spoke over the phone with Ms Swaraj to express his “regret and deep disappointment” at the US having to postpone the dialogue for “unavoidable reasons”.
