Indo-US Relations

Climate change.
Securing the global commons — outer space, the oceans, transportation and communication networks, and cyber-space.
India and the United States also share a common interest in dismantling the infrastructure of terrorism in Pakistan.
Reforming the United Nations and Breton Woods institutions.
The nearly three million persons of Indian origin who contribute significantly to American economy, and 100,000 Indian students on U.S. campuses, symbolise strong people-to-people ties.

At the same time, U.S. business and government representatives complain about India’s nuclear liability law, tax regime and intellectual property rights protection.
India continues to have concerns about U.S. protectionism, changes in immigration laws affecting movement of India’s skilled workers, and the absence of a response on concluding a totalisation agreement exempting temporary Indian workers from paying U.S. social security taxes, which amount now to $1 billion annually.
There is consonance in their concern about the consequences of the rise of China. China and the United States have adversarial relations with each other. So do China and India.
