Indian Envoy S Jaishankar To American Audience, 'India's Rise Poses No Challenge To U.S.'
Noting that relationship building is never without challenges, he said some of it is structural; the rest emanates from different histories.
"The U.S. has to overcome its inclination to view ties through the lens of alliance practices. Indians perhaps have to indulge themselves less in compulsive ambiguity," he said in his maiden public appearance before a U.S. think-tank.
"Ironically, American complaints on that score usually come when it too is considering hedging. Building ties requires a degree of give and take that can test official doms. Appreciating each other's interests can be more difficult than we generally assume. And contrary to what many seem to believe here, domestic politics is not just the prerogative of the U.S.," he said.
