Richard M. Rossow, a Senior Advisor at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, will be discussing the evolving relationship between the United States and India. Over the past two decades, both Republican and Democratic presidents have supported building ties with India, each focusing on different aspects of this relationship. As these nations continue to strengthen their connections, India's influence on global security, trade, and political dynamics is expected to grow.

"The U.S. views India not only as a regional partner but also as a key global player in addressing many of the 21st century’s most pressing challenges," said Rossow. He plans to highlight key policy drivers from leaders of both countries, identifying areas of overlap and divergence.

The event is part of Great Decisions, an annual discussion program on world affairs presented by the International Relations Commission in partnership with the World Affairs Council of West Michigan. The series occurs every Tuesday in February and March at the Gerald R. Ford Memorial Museum and is available via live stream.

For those interested in attending Rossow's talk or other sessions in the series, admission is free but registration is requested through Eventbrite.
