US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is expected to meet with his Chinese counterpart, Admiral Dong Jun, at a major defence conference in Singapore next week, the Pentagon announced Friday. It will be the first meeting between the two defence leaders following a phone call in April. It comes as the US and China have gradually worked to warm relations, which had been largely frozen since a controversial visit to Taiwan by former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in 2022 resulted in China temporarily stopping most military-to-military communications.
