Indo-U.S. Science and Technology Forum

Indo-U.S. Science and Technology Forum

Remarks by Ambassador David C. Mulford at a meeting of the Indo-U.S. Science and Technology Forum in New Delhi, December 3, 2004.

"Our two governments have agreed to support the Indo-U.S. Science and Technology Forum. This is a center of creative energy where the vision and ideas of individuals can flourish. It is deeply satisfying to see the Forum offices open for business.

"This is especially so because we now see that the U.S. and India are more committed than ever before to creating the institutional framework that encourages, indeed promotes, the power and genius of our nations' scientists. We already share, as two great nations, an abiding interest and faith in science and technology. We are natural partners here and together can create opportunities beyond our present imaginations for growth, prosperity and a better life for all our peoples."
