A Strategic Partnership on Shaky Grounds The joint press conference between US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar in New Delhi highlighted the growing strategic partnership between India and the United States, but beneath the surface lies a complex web of issues that threaten to undermine this relationship.
Rubio emphasized the "strategic partnership" between the two nations as a deepening cooperation on defense, trade, energy, technology, and counterterrorism.
The US has invested heavily in India, with Indian companies pumping over $20 billion into the American economy. This partnership is driven by shared interests but raises questions about its nature.
