Summaries

Summary Sentence: This emerging partnership, based on shared values of democracy, pluralism, and rule of law, is important not only for India and the United States, but also for the rest of the World.

Full Summary:

The long and complex relationship between India and the United States, the world’s largest and the oldest democracies, respectively, has veered from warm embrace independence, to the uneasy frostbite of the cold war, to being described by President Obama as “the defining partnership of the 21st century.” This emerging partnership, based on shared values of democracy, pluralism, and rule of law, is important not only for India and the United States, but also for the rest of the World.
