Hillary Clinton visits India and tells Delhi that Barack Obama too is good for business
Taking the focus away from terrorism – and telling India that Pakistan was taking steps to counter terror – Hillary stuck to the traditional US policy on maintaining equidistance in South Asia. Instead, she focused on key environmental issues by asking India not to repeat American mistakes in contributing to global pollution and by passionately defending US demands for help in fighting terrorism. “We acknowledge now with President Obama that we have made mistakes in the United States, and we along with other developed countries have contributed most significantly to the problem that we face with climate change. We are hoping a great country like India will not make the same mistakes.” She was referring to Obama’s statement in Italy that the US had “sometimes fallen short” of its responsibilities in controlling its carbon emissions.
Nonetheless, terror is too important to ignore and Hillary cast India and the United States as allies in the fight against terrorism. “Yesterday’s bombings in Jakarta, Indonesia, provide a painful reminder that the threat of such violent extremism is still very real. It is global. It is ruthless. It is nihilistic and it must be stopped,” she said. Equally, her trip was about reassuring India that the Obama administration meant well. India’s foreign policy establishment has been a little suspicious of the US President’s intentions in areas that matter, like Kashmir, Afghanistan-Pakistan, non-proliferation, outsourcing and climate change. Experts’ hope that Obama continue from where George Bush left.
