The Bill Clinton Administration's India policy (1993-2001)

Abstract

The article deals with the US policy towards India during the presidency of Bill Clinton. The author reveals the main factors that influenced the change of Washington's approach to the relations with New Delhi in late 1990s. The end of the Cold War and the development of globalization increased the significance of South Asia for the United States. The main goals of the US policy in the region included providing stability and security, nonproliferation of nuclear weapons, combating terrorism, pollution, drug trafficking, improving human rights record. The first years of the Clinton Administration marked mainly negative trends in the bilateral US-India relations. It was partly caused by the unwary remarks made by the American President himself as well as by the members of his team. The Administration representatives concentrated their attention on the hot-button regional and country-specific issues, such as the status of Kashmir and the Sikh separatist movement, which seemed offensive for New Delhi. After the beginning of the second Bill Clinton's presidential term the bilateral relations started to improve. The US adopted a policy of greater engagement with South Asia. The new approach implied better relations with India and the enlargement of bilateral economic and political cooperation. Since 1997 the US began to carry out a more balanced policy towards the settlement of the Kashmir conflict. The American official representatives were more restrained in their statements. The level of diplomatic coordination between the countries increased significantly. The nuclear tests conducted by India in May 1998 became a serious challenge for the US engagement policy. Even though Bill Clinton imposed sanctions on India, the states were involved in close diplomatic negotiations. Apart from nonproliferation issues, countries' representatives Assistant Secretary of State Strobe Talbott and Minister of External Affairs Jaswant Singh were discussing the future of the US-India ties, specifically the potential of the economic and strategic cooperation. President Clinton's visit to India provided an opportunity to create a qualitatively new relationship between the US and India. The author comes to a conclusion that one of the important factors of the rapprochement between the countries was the convergence of shared democratic values. By contrast, in Pakistan democratic norms were violated when the military government came to power. It explains why the White House reconsidered India's role in the region. The author notes that from Washington's perspective New Delhi was regarded as not only the pillar of democracy in South Asia, but also the potential partner in democracy promotion through the region and beyond.
