Changing Facets of Indo US Relations in Post 9/11 Phase : Convergence of Interest

Mrudula Mohanty

Abstract :

The end of the Cold War freed India-U.S. relations from the constraints of global bipolarity, but interactions continued for a decade to be affected by the burden of history, most notably the longstanding India-Pakistan rivalry and nuclear weapons proliferation in the region. India’s swift offer of full support for U.S.-led counterterrorism operations after September 2001 was widely viewed as reflective of such change. In recent years, the United States and India have engaged in numerous and unprecedented joint military exercises. Discussions of possible sales to India of major U.S.-built weapons systems are ongoing. Plans to expand high technology trade have become key bilateral issues in recent years. In this article the author attempts to present factors responsible for changing Indo-US relations post 9/11 with focus on convergence of interests.
