US is interested in peace and wants a world without war. US is genuinely interested in denuclearization of all the countries. It has the superior technology both for conventional or nuclear war. Destruction of other nations is not in the interest of US. It has laid the foundation for a unified stable Europe by giving Milosavic a telling notice. And yet when it served notice to Milosevic, what was India's reaction? It opposed NATO (and the US), giving some old-fashioned arguments about Yugoslavia being a "sovereign state". It chose to ignore an emerging body of humanitarian international law, which confers upon individuals and communities the right to be protected against genocidal practices, torture and other gross violations of human-rights. External intervention becomes justified when countries become failed states or when their internal crises threaten to spill into neighboring regions. Perhaps India had its own rigmarole in Kashmir and the north-east in mind when they went about opposing NATO. But by taking a stance against intervention in favor of the Kosovar Albanians, who have been subject to some of the worst human-rights abuse in Europe since the end of World War II, India's rulers have exposed their cynicism. And in doing so, they have only betrayed their utter lack of confidence in managing India's internal problems.
