This is a slide-set that I had used for a workshop conducted by the Indian School of Business on the Indo-Pacific on July 30, 2021.
It discusses the evolution of the US Indo-Pacific strategy and China's perceptions and policy responses.
Today, India has a very strong position in world politics. Authority of the country on the world stage continues to grow seriously, as evidenced by its inclusion in the "twenty", talks on granting the country a permanent seat on the UN Security Council, etc. From the outset, in India the main real strategic goal of foreign policy was determined to transform the country into a world power. This problem is fundamental to the country's foreign policy for over 60 years.
The heads of government of Australia, the UK and US announced the formation of a trilateral security pact, to be known by the acronym, AUKUS, the nuclear coalition, which has ignited unprecedented French fury.
Without naming China, the US President announced that “in order to deal with rapidly evolving threats,” the US and Britain would share, with Australia, intelligence and advanced technologies in areas like artificial intelligence, cyber-warfare, quantum computing and nuclear submarine construction.

What does the election of Joe Biden mean for India. Do we stand at a more favourable position for the USA, or we are worse off than the trump government. We try to do a detailed analysis of this topic.

It throws lights on - Emergence of India as a global power, Indo-Pacific strategic arc, continued rise of China as a global power, increasing economic and strategic weight of East Asia, the Arc of Freedom and Prosperity, Pivot to Asia, the Heart of Maritime Asia and Pacific, India’s tough neighborhood, India’s relations with Bhutan, Maldives and Nepal,When the two bull fight; the ultimate victim will be the nearby small calf. India’s destiny and its South Asian neighbors.
One element of the extensive partnership that the UPA administration wants to establish with the United States is the agreement on civilian nuclear cooperation. The UPA administration signed a ten year defense framework agreement with the United States prior to the joint declaration of July 2005. It is obvious that the Americans would not have agreed to the nuclear cooperation without the defense pact. This seems to be an element of a trade off. Therefore the present study has been carried out to study the india’s interest in the foreign policy with deal, to study united states’ interests with the deal and to discuss the implications of the deal on south asian strategic environment. The study concludes that India has got the status of de jure nuclear power in world area. India will have to go under non proliferation objectives of United States and will have to accept some compromises on her nuclear program. Some foundations of non proliferation circle will create critical conditions for Indias independent sovereignty over her nuclear program and non proliferation standards and U.S. role in Asian matters.

3. India, China, and the US India was upset when Obama visited Beijing in 2009. The U.S. wants to build stronger alliances with India in order to counterbalance China, especially if China would become aggressive. India, Indonesia, Japan, and South Korea, as Dr. Chellaney(a security expert at the Center for Policy Research in Delhi) puts it, “are the four key democracies that you need to contain China.” Companies in India may also help to upset the monopolies that China has on many products used in the U.S.
4. India, Asia, and the U.S. The Arabian Gulf – India is a possible successor “East Asian Power”
5. Bill Clinton and India Clinton visited India and began the current stance on open trade with India. Major parties in India believed that Clinton only wanted to achieve peace in Kashmir and ensure that no strong alliances have been made between India and China. Clinton visited Pakistan and asked them to forget the Kashmir incidence and to stop their development of nuclear arms, but to this day the fighting in Kashmir has not ended.
6. George W. Bush and India Focused on trade and outsourcing, which helped India’s economy. Started the a civil nuclear cooperation deal, which helped to reinforce the legitimacy of India as a nuclear nation. Bush lobbied to allow India to purchase Bush said that India and Pakistan needed to resolve their own issues, and did not say much about it because of the support from Pakistan in the war on terror. The relations between India and the U.S. was weakened because of this.
7. Barack Obama and India Obama’s visit to India: World’s largest democracy and the world’s oldest democracy. “India is not emerging, India has emerged” Information age rooted in India. Bound by shared values Deeper partnership, although Climate Change Mumbai and Kashmir conflict – cannot impose a solution
8. Nuclear Cooperation Assistance from the U.S. to the Indian India will allow the International Atomic Energy Association (IAEA), of the UN, to inspect its nuclear program, and continue to monitor it. The U.S. companies will be allowed to build nuclear reactors in India.
9. US-India Relations Options 1. We could stress the changes that the Indian government needs to take, and back off of relations with India until they become more developed. Stick with The U.S.’s close relations with China. 2. The U.S. could continue to build stronger and deeper relations with India and use this relationship in order to counterbalance China. We could continue to promote their development and help them financially.
10. Option #2 The U.S. should continue to strengthen their relationship with India for many reasons: Counterbalance China in case of aggression and in economy Help India to develop more fully in their economy and nuclear program Help to boost the American economy and security as well Combine strong democracies and help strengthen the Indian democracy Keep India from forging strong alliances with China
Editor's Notes
Today 2/3 of Kashmir have acceded into India in exchange for military aid, while the western part, Azar Kashmir, was captured by Pakistan.But, the UN did broker 2 cease fires since the beginning of the conflict.
It is basically impossible to address the U.S. – India relationship without understanding how it intersects with the U.S.-China relationship.
India, opposed to China, is seen by America as a possible successor of the gulf when the U.S. eventually pulls out of the area. America believes they will pull out of the region eventually because of the economy. America sees India as possibly more qualified because of the Chinese internal instability. The gulf will help India thrive economically, expand its naval fleet, and expand its nuclear project. There is also a large Indian population in the region.The Obama Administration has referred to India as an East Asian Power,
Because there was distrust
India did give some aid to Afghanistan to help rebuild their government, but there was fear about anti-US sentiment among their Pakistani population
Hillary Clinton: invited Indian prime minister to the U.S.The US “hedge” tactic is straightforward: Expand involvement in East Asia regional forums, military exercises, and agreements to include the US and India, thereby diluting Chinese opportunities for dominationThe US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, on a visit to India, said the two sides had agreed an "end-use monitoring" accord.This aims to help the US ensure that its military technology is not transferred to other countries.Mrs Clinton also held talks with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Some nuclear arms race in the middle east
The U.S. needs to be careful in their relations with China because of the increase in aggression surrounding territorial claims, and seemingly growing relations with North Korea, and so option one may be a safer bet. America is also known to spread democracy, so should we first wait until India becomes a stronger democracy and is up to par with our standards? Maybe we should allow India to develop on their own and create a strong economy, instead of trying to aid them as we have been criticized for in the past.This is how the Obama administration has
I think the Americans, probably, and the Indian government sees China as a not-necessarily-hostile state, but a state which could be hostile, whose rise could be threatening. So therefore a policy of reinsurance – diplomatic consultations, military-to-military cooperation – without provoking China is probably the correct policy,” Stephen Cohen, a South Asia expert with the Brookings Institute, said at a talk in New Delhi.
