It is in the best interests of the United States of America to build and maintain strong partnerships with our allies across the globe. In that spirit, I rise today in recognition of our important relationship with one of those allies, the Republic of India. India, the world's largest democracy, is under constant threat from the Chinese Communist Party. The Chinese Communist Party has been acting aggressively towards India in recent years and infringing on Indian territory. India is an effective counterweight to the Chinese Communist Party's desire for dominance in southeast Asia, Madam Speaker, and a strong India is critical to preventing expansion of the Chinese Communist Party's global influence. I am proud to stand on the floor of the House of Representatives today with a strong, clear message for our friends in India: The United States supports you in your struggle against Chinese aggressors. Together, our two democratic, free nations will stand against the communism that only seeks to rob citizens of their individuality and beliefs. ____________________
