Summary:

Overcoming the nadir that followed India's nuclear test and the propensity toward the safety of inaction within both governments, the United States and India have forged cooperation on a range of issues, from security to economic to climate change. Nowhere has coop- eration been greater than in the area of security cooperation. The question now is whether the bureaucracy on both sides can take advantage of the opening quickly enough and thoroughly enough to make improved security relations endure. Our report provides an overview of how U.S. and Indian security interests are aligning and where gaps remain. It also provides insight into the areas of ongoing or possible security cooperation that should be considered.
