As the world’s economy shifts toward Asia, India is playing an increasingly prominent role in global affairs. The United States recently became India’s largest trading partner, and the two countries are making important progress on deepening their economic connection. Policymakers in New Delhi and Washington will need to collaborate more closely than in the past to sustain India’s economic development and address challenges facing the global economy.
Join Hudson for a conversation between Indian Finance Secretary Ajay Seth and Distinguished Fellow Walter Russell Mead. Mr. Seth began his public service in 1987, when he joined the Indian Administrative Service, and he most recently served as the secretary of the Department of Economic Affairs.
