Conference Proceedings on Indian and U.S. Security Cooperation: Defense Production, Indo-Pacific Region, and Afghanistan
Abstract
This publication reports on the deliberations of an online conference that took place over two days (June 30-July 1, 2022). The conference, which was sponsored by the U.S. State Department, is a component of an ongoing RAND Corporation project that focuses on Russian and Chinese arms exports and private security and military companies. Weapon exports and the provision of security and military services abroad by China and Russia serve as a means for both countries to extend their influence around the globe. How does this affect an emerging great power India and what does it mean for India-U.S. security cooperation? The objective of this track II dialogue meeting was for Indian and American expertise to discuss common approaches to bilateral security cooperation, Russian arms sales to India, and the challenges posed by China to regional security. This document contains the papers prepared by the six presenters. The reader will note that there is a complementarity about the papers from each side, despite the fact that they cover a wide range of bilateral, regional, and global issues of interest to Indian and American policymakers and scholars.
