As a new administration takes office in Washington, followers of the U.S.-India relationship are eagerly anticipating what shape ties between these two nations will take under a new president. A new book by the journalist Meenakshi Ahamed (https://harpercollins.co.in/a-matter-of-trust-excerpt/) , A Matter of Trust: India–US Relations from Truman to Trump (https://www.amazon.com/Matter-Trust-India-US-Relations-Truman-ebook/dp/B08P541QWH) , offers a sweeping portrait of this relationship over seven decades.
This week on the show, Milan sits down with Ahamed to discuss the evolution of U.S.-India relations, from the moment of independence in 1947 to Joe Biden’s inauguration in 2021. The two discuss Nehru’s perennial skepticism of America, Bill Clinton’s lifelong fascination with India, and how China’s recent actions have given the partnership an unprecedented boost.
