India: No interest in US-style security role in Gulf
India's foreign minister said his country had no interest in filling the breach if Washington decided to reduce its military footprint in the Gulf, and cautioned that the region would not be well-served by turning to other Asian powers, like China.
"We have never played the classical role of intervening with military assistance in the same way that the US has been doing," External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid told Reuters. (Reuters)
