Hillary Clinton Lost in India
David J. Karl, The Asia Times | August 5, 2009
The US and India should increase their defence partnership to offset the rise of China and secure further nuclear technology for New Delhi. ++ During a successful visit, Secretary Clinton left the capital to embrace India's "societal linkages" and established cooperation in research and agriculture. ++ The trip helped "status-conscious Indians... claim some level of emblematic parity with that other rising power in Asia." ++ Personally interested in India, Clinton is the perfect diplomat to overcome new issues facing the partnership.
