Condi Rice on India

From the Hindustan Times (India), about the moderate-conservative Republican: "Former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, who was at the helm of US foreign policy when the civil nuclear deal was charted out with India has listed the historic agreement as one of her 'proudest moments'. Rice, who as Secretary of State, played a frontal role in the years leading up to the operationalisation of the agreement had signed the deal along with external affairs minister Pranab Mukherjee in October, 2008."

More: "'One of my proudest moments was watching the US-India civil nuclear agreement being signed,' Rice said in her key note address to the inaugural annual summit of the US India Business Summit (USIBC) on the West Coast being organised in association with the Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI). Lauding the Indian democracy, Rice said India was a good example of what democratic systems can achieve. 'India is a wonderful example of what democratic institutions can achieve. The Indian democracy cannot be underestimated,' Rice said in her address which was attended by some 300 top businesses from both the US and India, including a delegation of top Indian corporate leaders from India brought by FICCI."
