SUMMARY:Tipping the Scales: An Emergent India on the World Stage
DESCRIPTION:The Cleveland Council on World Affairs is honored to host Akriti (Vasudeva) Kalyankar for the Dr. Raj and Karen Aggarwal Forum on India. Please note that this event will be held at the Union Club of Cleveland. \nWith the world’s largest population and an economy with enormous potential for growth\, India is a global swing state\, one whose outlook and actions will significantly influence the international order throughout the 21st century. While India maintains an independent approach to foreign policy\, the United States had prioritized developing a strategic relationship with India over the past 25 years. There is a growing number of shared interests between the U.S. and India\, including defense cooperation\, trade and development goals\, evolving supply chains\, and concerns about the expansion of Chinese power.  \nCCWA is glad to be joined by The Stimson Center’s Akriti Kalyankar to share her analysis on India\, its foreign policy\, and its relationship with the United States. How will South Asia’s dominant power position itself on the world stage as it rises to prominence? What should we expect from U.S.-India relations moving forward\, particularly as it relates to the great power competition with China?  \nAkriti (Vasudeva) Kalyankar is a Fellow with the South Asia Program at the Stimson Center\, with over 10 years experience working across think-tanks and media in the United States and India. Her research focuses on U.S.-China-India strategic dynamics\, geopolitics of Southern Asia and the Indo-Pacific\, U.S.-India defense and strategic cooperation\, and Indian foreign policy. She is Editor-at-large of South Asian Voices\, an online magazine featuring strategic analysis and commentary on the security\, politics\, and economics of the subcontinent. She also serves as an Adjunct Lecturer in the School of Professional and Area Studies at the U.S. Foreign Service Institute.
