India’s weak and protected economy gave it little influence in global markets, and its nonaligned foreign policy caused periodic tension with Washington.

It is a player in global economic decisions as part of both the G-20 and the G-8 + 5 (the G-8 plus the five leading emerging economies) and may ultimately attain a permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council.
