[lbo-talk] Ivanov for trilateral ties

[Chris Doss]

Ulhas, this Moscow-Delhi-Beijing dialogue has been going on for some time 
now (at least since Primakov's visit to India in 1998). How much interest of 
it is there on the Indian side, and what would you say are the prospects for 
its development from an Indian point of view? Thx
