the United States nominate and confirm an Ambassador to India as soon as possible;
the United States and India should continue to expand economic engagement, including finalizing a bilateral investment treaty and reviving the Trade Policy Forum;
India should continue its economic liberalization reforms, including discussions with other Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum nations about Indian membership in APEC;
the United States and India should expand energy, defense, and security cooperation; and
India should modify its offset regime so funds can flow to a second tier of Indian priorities such as education, skills development, or manufacturing.
