RE:A very stupid analysis
by Nat Murali on Aug 15, 2007 02:23 PM

Mr.Dipak,
Do you know how India has paid back our only ally USSR (Now Russia)?. At The time of USSR disintegration from 1USD=1 rouble rate, Rouble has collapsed 1usd=600 to 700 roubles.
Rupee was stronger. India had the option to pay the entire loan with either us$ or Rouble but out of sheer goodwill They stood by us thru all the wars and were the only friends-counted, India agreed to pay by old rupee equivelant of Roubles and saved a friend when there was such a financial crisis.
Credit for This humane gestrue goes to Chandrasekar/ Narasimharao Govts.
By not working with USA now is really counter productive and will isolate us further in nuclear and other strategic areas
Thanks
Nat Murali
