Prominent visionary leaders of Indian freedom movement had friendly relations with United States which continued after independence in 1947. The bilateral relations were soon engulfed in the Cold War, with India refusing to align with any military bloc. India decided to go for non-alignment, something not palatable to US. This led to many ups and down in bilateral relations. At this moment, it is particularly important to revisit the original aspiration of establishing diplomatic relations more than seven decades ago. There are manifold challenges the two “great democracies” of the world have faced during this period. These have been identified by distinguished contributors of this special volume on the subject. They have also visualised the way forward for the two great nations. We take this opportunity to express our heart-felt thanks to contributors who have shared our sentiments and accepted our invitation to enrich the contents of the Journal. They have always been a source of strength to us. Dr.Mahendra Gaur Dr.Indira Gaur Director Mg.

A Look into the Conflict Between India and Pakistan over Kashmir https://www.e-ir.info/2020/10/07/a-look-into-the-conflict-between-india-and-pakistan-over-kashmir/ PRANAV ASOORI, OCT 7 2020 The region of Kashmir is one of the most volatile areas in the world. The nations of India and Pakistan have fiercely contested each other over Kashmir, fighting three major wars and two minor wars. It has gained immense international attention given the fact that both India and Pakistan are nuclear powers and this conflict represents a threat to global security. Historical Context To understand this conflict, it is essential to look back into the history of the area. In August of 1947, India and Pakistan were on the cusp of independence from the British. The British, led by the then Governor-General Louis Mountbatten, divided the British India empire into the states of India and Pakistan. The British India Empire was made up of multiple princely states (states that were allegiant to the British but headed by a monarch) along with states directly headed by the British. At the time of the partition, princely states had the right to choose whether they were to cede to India or Pakistan. To quote Mountbatten, “Typically, geographical circumstance and collective interests, et cetera will be the components to be considered[1].

Terrorism is dangerous to both the human rights and peace. Unfortunately the issue of human Keywords rights is over politicised and sometimes it is used by the vested interests to derail the Human rights, Peace, Kashmir government measures to establish peace, law and order, which is basic requirement for the protection of human rights and governance. The vociferous campaign of some National and International Human Rights Group along with some political parties in opposition on the issue of violation of human rights by the security measures in Kashmir especially after the revocation of the Article 370 are analysed under the above context. While referring to the measures which were taken by the central government to established peace in Punjab just in the neighboring state of J&K then, paper holds that the strong measures against the terrorism are necessary measures to secure the human rights of the common citizens in Kashmir. This paper also exposes the dubious character of the some national and international human rights groups along with the political parties in opposition that are more worried about the right to freedom of expression instead of the right to life in a volatile situation like in Kashmir.

    Tim Malloy, Polling Analyst (203) 645-8043 Doug Schwartz, Associate Vice President and Director (203) 582-5294 FOR RELEASE: FEBRUARY 3, 2021 61% OPTIMISTIC ABOUT NEXT FOUR YEARS WITH BIDEN IN OFFICE, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY NATIONAL POLL FINDS; 68% OF AMERICANS SUPPORT THE $1.9 TRILLION STIMULUS RELIEF BILL Two weeks into the presidency of Joe Biden, a majority of Americans say, 61 – 34 percent, that they are generally optimistic about the next four years with Biden as president, according to a Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pea- ack) University national poll of 1,075 adults released today. However, there are sharp divisions by party identification. Democrats say 90 – 7 percent and independents say 62 – 35 percent that they are optimistic. Republicans say 65 – 27 percent that they are pessimistic. Despite an overall majority being optimistic, 69 percent of Americans say they are either very dissatisfied (46 percent) or somewhat dissatisfied (23 percent) with the way things are going in the nation today. Twenty-nine percent say they are very satisfied (6 percent) or somewhat satisfied (23 percent) with the way things are going in the nation today. A majority (56 – 35 percent) say Biden is doing more to unite the country than to divide it. “Amid a palpable uncertainty about the months and even years ahead, there is a sense that President Biden is the man for the moment. And that moment can’t come too soon,” said Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy. U.S. ISSUES: CRISIS VS. PROBLEM? Americans were asked about several issues the United States is confronting right now and whether they think these issues are a crisis, a problem but not a crisis, or not a problem at all.

  • Whither Transatlantic Relations in the Biden Era?
    Whither Transatlantic Relations in the Biden Era? by Dr. George N. Tzogopoulos BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 1,820, November 16, 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Relations between the US and the EU are expected to improve during the presidency of Joe Biden, but it is not yet clear whether the disagreements Europe had with Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump, were about methods or substance. Washington and Brussels can work together on issues like climate change and can probably find synergies in international organizations, but their understanding of security challenges remains different. The most likely area in which they can cooperate effectively is the creation of a coordinated Western approach to the problem of COVID-19. During the Donald Trump administration, disagreements between Washington and Brussels on the JCPOA, the financial commitments of NATO member states, climate change, and Trump’s overall understanding of the EU’s role in the world brought transatlantic relations to a new low. In supporting Brexit, for example, Trump exhibited his limited faith in the project of European integration. Against that backdrop, the apparent victory of Joe Biden in the 2020 US presidential election was welcomed in Europe. German Chancellor Angela Merkel tweeted that she looked forward “to future cooperation with President Biden,” and French President Emmanuel Macron called Biden and emphasized his desire to work with him. The EU leadership also issued a positive statement. Ongoing tensions inside the US, the unclear Senate result, and Trump’s refusal to concede to Biden until legal challenges to the election results are completed hinder prognostications about how 2021 will unfold.
