WASHINGTON: Terming China a major foreign policy challenge for the US, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said that if elected, he would ensure strong ties with India to counter the Chinese influence.
In his address in Nevada on Tuesday, Romney, although acknowledging that partnership with China was necessary for a stable and secure world, accused Beijing of "cheating" the international community over a range of issues. "It's in our mutual interest, of course, for China to be a partner for a stable and secure world. But the cheating must finally be brought to a stop," he said, accusing President Barack Obama of not doing anything in this regard.
"The President hasn't done it and won't do it, and I will," asserted Romney.
