India's Interests at Stake in Relationship with China
Drafted By: Dr. Harsh V. Pant
http://www.pinr.com

As India embarks on redefining its foreign policy priorities to match its growing weight in the international system, it has become imperative for Indian policymakers to learn from the country's past in order to frame appropriate policies for the future. The Central Intelligence Agency recently declassified its decades-old documents, referred to as the "family jewels," which included the CIA's own assessment of the reasons behind India's debacle in the 1962 Sino-Indian war. While the documents do not reveal any major new insight into the events, it reinforces some of the issues that India should not ignore.

Great article by Harsh Pant. Explains why the US badly wants the nuke deal with India--To curtail Indian capabilities & prevent a potential challenger in the future.
