Varadarajan suggests the U.S. ignore India until such time as the subcontinent can sort out its priorities. He concludes:
America gets neither strategic comfort nor a fair economic opportunity from India. Perhaps it’s time for Washington to shrug its shoulders and move on, leaving a warmer relationship with India to a time when Indians have made up their muddled minds about the kind of country theirs is—or ought to be.Much of India's indecision about how to proceed arises from that fact that it encompasses at least as much internal ethnic division as another notoriously sluggish entity, the EU.
