US-India nuclear deal a rare Bush foreign policy success

This article cites Bush’s recent nuclear relations with India as one of his few successful international policies. Published February 10, 2008, the article suggests that “A landmark US-India nuclear endorsed by the US Congress is a rare foreign policy success for US President George W. Bush and sets the stage for improved ties between the world's two largest democracies.” Of course, this policy has its critics, but its proponents argue that it will benefit American businesses and create opportunities for them in India. Those in support of the deal believe it to be one of the most important pieces of foreign policy legislation particularly because of Bush’s criticized foreign policy record. Critics of the policy warn of how it will change future arms control relations.
