barriers becoming believe circles difficult european indian industry market perception suddenly tariff trade
I believe there is a perception in Indian trade and industry circles that the European market is becoming increasingly difficult to penetrate. As tariff barriers disintegrate, non-tariff barriers suddenly come up,
country believe partnership
There are partnerships based on principle. There are partnerships based on pragmatism. And fortunately, when it comes to Indo-American relations, both concentrations find a new robust phase of relationship, a multi-fasted relationship which I believe exists in the interests of both our countries.
believe ignorance people
India has, of course, aspirations of getting out of its poverty, ignorance and disease, which still afflict millions of people. But I do believe that we have something to offer to the rest of the world, including the United States.
believe thinking unique
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.
believe i-believe multicultural
I believe all societies, all thriving societies of the future are going to be multicultural societies.
believe people working-together
India is this great experiment of a billion people of such great diverse persuasions working together, seeking their salvation in the framework of a democracy. I believe it will have some lessons for all the multicultural societies.
country believe thinking
I believe that without looking at each other as rivals or as competitors, in a democratic India, operating in the framework of an open economy, an open society has, I think, some significance for developing countries, not only in Asia but outside Asia.
country believe moving
I do believe that India needs a lot more foreign direct investment than we've got, and we should have the ambition to move in the same league many other countries in our neighborhood are moving. We may not be able to reach where the Chinese are today, but there is no reason why we should not think big about the role of foreign direct investment, particularly in the areas relating to infrastructure, where our needs for investment are very large. We need new initiatives, management skills, and I do believe that direct foreign investment can play a very important role.
meaningful believe poverty
Meaningful solutions to the problems of mass poverty that prevails in India I believe can only be found in the framework of an expanding economy.
believe i-believe investment
India's saving rate will go up. India's investment rate will go up. And I believe that's a plus point.
believe i-believe multicultural
I believe whether it is the United States or Europe, they will all end up as multicultural societies.
believe humanity wave
I believe a large part of humanity will draw appropriate lessons from what is the wave of the future in the 21st century.
running party believe
The Chinese have certain advantages. The fact that it's a single party government. But I do believe in the long run the fact that India is a functioning democracy committed to the rule of law. Our system is slow to move but I'm confident that once decisions are taken they are going to be far more durable.
believe together working-together
I do believe that the future of civilization belongs to those who would lay emphasis on working together instead of talking about clash of civilizations.
