On 21 July 2016, Gateway House, alongside the Harvard Club of Mumbai, hosted a discussion on ‘What do the 2016 U.S. elections mean for India?’
The speakers were Ambassador Neelam Deo, Founder and Director of Gateway House, and Professor John Echeverri-Gent, Associate Professor of Politics, University of Virginia. The dialogue centred on the varying foreign policy positions of the respective Republican and Democratic nominees, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, and went on to discuss whether the outcome of the election will alter the trend of intensifying Indo-U.S. interactions under the Modi-Obama leadership, and what this will imply for the Indo-U.S. bilateral relationship.
