Can Joe Biden maintain relationships with Modi like Trump did if he wins the presidential election?

Trumps relationship with India and Modi was a Bad Bad Reality Show and nothing else.

In the end -India gained Nothing.

• No US Investments into our Economy
• Loss of Favored Trading Status for 57 Items
• Curbing of H1B Visas for Indian Nationals
• Membership of an Academic Quad with zero financial incentives
• Demand upon Demand for American Goods to be dumped into Indian Markets especially Agricultural or Machinery or Drugs/Pharma

Will Joe Biden maintain a relationship with India?

Why would he not?

The only thing is this bad reality show will finally be over. No more spectacles of World Leaders dancing on stages and organizing Million Dollar shows to play to the gallery and bad acting and shouting ab ki baar trump sarkar

It will be the old fashioned negotiations in North Block or State Department with positive decisions being announced and negative ones not being announced like it was the case with Obama or even Bush or Clinton.

What are the crucial issues here at play?

Will Joe Biden favor Pakistan against India?

I dont think so. Abbotabad happened under his watch in the year 2011. He has seen Pakistan and President Obama lost faith in Pakistan even by 2012.

Will Joe Biden favor China?

I am pretty sure he will. As long as Obama was in charge - China never wagged their tail too much. After Trumps aborted friendship attempt with Kim Jong Un and after his repeated bullying of China in Trade - Biden would be a Fresh Fresh perspective.

However unlike Trump i believe Biden will be a stronger deterrent to Chinese Aggression with India or in the South China Sea. He can handle the Chinese better than Trump. After all he has had 42 years of Political experience

Will Joe Biden demand dumping of US Products in India?

I would say No. Unlike Trump - Biden understands there is no going back to 1970. It is just not possible. Dumping US Products in Indian Markets will simply be counter productive for Indian Manufacturers and he knows Modi will never allow such a thing - so he wont bully or force our PM.

So as far as Biden is concerned India has only one strategic value - as a Counter to Terrorist Pakistan and he will do whatever is required to ensure this strategic value continues.
