I sincerely believe what happens in India has, I think, lessons, morals for the future evolution of humankind in the 21st century.

Let me say that I think the economic history of the last 150 years clearly shows that if you want to industrialize a country in a short period, let us say 20 years, and you don't have a well-developed private sector, entrepreneurial class, then central planning is important.

I don't see, I think, any problems between India and the United States.

I think the proof of the pudding is in the eating.

India's infrastructure has to be modernized, has to be expanded at a rate which will I think be consistent with the growth requirements.

Yes, I think India's economy always has been a mixed economy, and by Western standards we are much more of a market economy than a public sector-driven economy.

With the revolution in information technology, with the revolution in transport technologies, I think just geography has lost its all significance.

I do believe that India is a unique case, and you need, I think, exceptional skills, I think, to incorporate India into the world nuclear order.

China is not I think a country which does not regulate, but there is a difference between the Chinese system and the Indian system.
