Shyam Saran, foreign secretary of India, says the U.S.-Indian dynamic has changed dramatically from the Cold War divergence between the two countries. India, he says, can be a vital partner in the U.S. effort to foster democracy around the world because India has developed strong institutions, including a vigorous election commission, an independent judiciary, multiple human rights commissions and a free press. Saran spoke at Center for Strategic and International Studies on May 19 and his remarks (India: Partner in Democracy, Target for Nonproliferation) are linked here in a downloadable PDF file.
