| Title Proper | Not Your Mother’s Cold War: India’s Options in US-China Competition |
| Language | ENG |

| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Even before the 2020 China-India boundary crisis, there was some discussion about how India would approach intensifying Sino-US competition. In India, there has been a tendency to compare it to Delhi’s options during the Cold War, with many arguing that alliances are anathema and therefore India would and should remain non-aligned. Other possibilities put forth have included India as a swing state between China and the United States. Yet others—often outside India—suggest that Delhi will have to choose.1 Since the Sino-Indian boundary crisis broke out in May 2020, the discussion has turned to whether or not the skirmishes would, or should, lead India to “pick a side” in unfolding Sino-US competition. |
