"US-China trade conflict: Geopolitics alone may not help Indian manufacturers," written by Devashish Mitra, Gerald B. and Daphna Cramer Professor of Global Affairs, was published in the Economic Times. "It is not unreasonable to believe that due to the escalating U.S.-China conflict, having China on the same supply chains or global production networks as the U.S. is now much costlier for American companies, thereby opening up new opportunities for Indian manufacturers," writes Mitra. "However, India's domestic policies and institutions make it difficult for it to take advantage of these favorable circumstances," he says.
