India a growing global power: US

[max de Indiana]

India a growing global power: USWASHINGTON: The United States sees India's rise as a global power as a largely positive factor and is therefore willing

and ready to assist in that process and its implications, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has said.

In an interview with Bloomberg News correspondents that was released by the state department on Friday, Rice has elaborated on the new US policy first articulated by Washington in March this year soon after she visited India.

"When I went out there, we talked about a stronger economic relationship, stronger energy cooperation, stronger defense cooperation and becoming a reliable partner for India as it makes its move as a global power," Rice has disclosed.

"And we used the words that we're fully willing and ready to assist in that growth of India's global power and the implications of that, which we see as largely positive," she added.

Rice response came after one reporter, in a rather incredulous tone, asked for clarification on how the US saw both India and China as global powers.

Question : Can I just interrupt for a second? I want to go back to one question. You said India is a growing global power and that is largely positive.
