india relations. some of the topics and relations with pakistan, china, and russia. this is a one hour and 20 minutes. >> good morning everyone. let me welcome you to the carnegie endowment, i am the senior fellow for the endowment, it's a great opportunity for us today, that we have randy fiber, the assistant secretary of defense joining us this morning. the topic, as we have advertised, is a conversation about the 2+2 dialogue that will happen within a week. it is an event that is very important in the political calendar, because the relationship has really come a long way since we first began working on the transformation about 20 years ago. i am particularly delighted that we could snag randy to speak about it, because he has the action on this issue in the pentagon. randy is all of you know, has a long career in government, in public policy. prior to his current position, he was the deputy assistant secretary of state, so -- for east asia, and the chief of staff and senior policy advisor to the d

and india and pakistan? >> i probably don't want to say about that because we want to give the new minister, the new government in pakistan space to explore where there may be opportunities to improve relations with india. many new government come into power and want to do that and then run smack dab into reality and all the difficulties. but in terms of separating what was said during the campaign and what he said since the election, we want to give him space to find the opportunity to improve things with india. i think on the questions about how that all relates to afghanistan and shared interests, there's no question we need pakistan's help in encouraging, persuading, pressuring the taliban to come to the negotiating table, deal with the national unity government under president ghani and talk about the future where they are included, but not through force, but a political process. we have made decisions on through the assistance and put constraints on a relationship with pakistan as a means to try to per

that is an example of cooperation around india's infrastructure.ou don't have to call that the belt and road initiative. >> the reason the belt and road has been taken up by sri lanka, nepal, and pakistan is partly a failure on india's part to deliver connectivity to its neighbors. india has been able to have meaningful infrastructure and activity with nepal. bangladesh, we have little connectivity in terms of energy and goods. the same thing is true with sri lanka as well. haslinda: mumbai was one of the original stops along the ancient silk road. it's port remains the country's largest. it is also home to the indian navy's western command, looking west across the arabian sea to pakistan and the middle east, and to the east and the riches of southeast asia, and ultimately china. ♪ >> some of the defaults are not surprising. especially sri lanka. you look at the economy, the size of the investment and the project. the port gets one or two hips every week, so it is not surprising the project has gone under. >> if you are a recipient country in bri a

goal of ending energy poverty in india. in fact, they announced that they've electrified every village in india, basically, and there's some truth to that in the sense that there's probably a power line that goes into every village physically, but there's still 300 million people that don't have access to power. and so, and it's certainly not quality, reliable power, but the reason that political statement is so important, we know that's their gome. we've approached them and said, let's become a partner and we understand that they have to deliver results against that goal in a politically relevant timeline for it to remain a priority. and i sometimes hope our colleagues in the field of development could be a bit more attuned to that political and governance reality in which they're working because that's how you really get to scale. we've worked on these issues, the dean and i together in afghanistan many years ago, and you know, we saw the value of bringing electrification to villages and cities as a clear demonstration of
