‘Sustainable path for US-India relations will require market transformations’: Ashley Tellis

Ashley J. Tellis, Tata Chair for Strategic Affairs and Senior Fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace at the the Carnegie Global Tech Summit says, “I do not believe that a sustainable path for the US-India Relationship is through state action and state subsidies. Those are very good to jump-start the process, but if we have to keep it sustainable, we need to really have market transformations in both countries that essentially permit innovation to respond to the pressures of the market. For 70 years now, we tried to help our friends while at the same time maintaining a proliferation regime that would date to a certain conception of order. Now, if we end up in a situation where the price of helping our friends is to engulf the regime simultaneously, I’m not quite sure long-term US interests are at hand, nor am I sure that the interests of our friends are at hand. What is even worse is that I’m not sure the administration has the discipline to understand the issues at hand.”
