Hillary Clinton as the next President of the United States will be the best bet for stronger US-India relations, says Terry McAuliffe, the chairman of her Presidential campaign.
At a time when Clinton's chances are being regarded as increasingly remote with front-runner Barack Obama tightening his hold, McAuliffe told an Indian American publication that she backs the civil nuclear deal and is keen on making the bilateral ties even stronger.
"She's always had a fine relationship with India. She has worked very closely with the Indian-American community here in the United States of America to the point as you know, the Obama campaign criticised her, called her the Senator from Punjab," he said in an interview.
