    I can’t even begin to imagine what’s going on here, but I know there were some declassified recordings and we know that:

    racism

    Nixon compared Indian women to Black women and said, “I mean, people say, what about the Black Africans? Well, you can see something, the vitality there, I mean they have a little animallike charm, but God, those Indians, ack, pathetic. Uch.”

    .

    Also I’m pretty sure at some point Nixon and Kissinger (of course) tried to get China to pressure India over the Indo-Pakistan war.
