51 May 7 1976 Regional Legal Advisor USAID American Embassy New Delhi Dearl Thank you very much for your dissent cable of March 10 dealing with the political uses of aid You are raising points of genuine concern and ones that have been widely considered in overall aid policy formulation as well as in the specific case of India - I could take issue with a number of the points that you make but I am sure thazyou know the arguments and counterarguments very well I would only point out that development aid to India becamew-as you express it--the sacrificial lamb simply for probably unfortunate reasons of timing aid decisions were on the table at the moment when we felt that a political signal had to be sent at the time there was no other relevant element of the Indo-US relation- ship available to be used as the medium for a necessary message In regard to the broader proposition of relating aid to political criteria you have stated your case cogently and the problems that you raise are matters which in their general form we all consider to be far from closed questions I would observe that we believe it legitimate both in relation to congressional mandates and to the standards of sensible public policy that development aid decisions as among countries which are qualified on need and develop- mental criteria not be immune from considerations of a political or inter-governmental order In the case of India when the head of government made and repeated state- ments about the United States which were both unfriendly and untrue and which byrimplication supported suggestions that U S aid workers were intelligence agents the demands of the political order for a clear and concrete response were of great importance UNCLASSIFIED US Department of State Case No F-2016-07743 Doc No C06431418 Date 11 13l2017 UNCLASSIFIED US Department of State Case No F-2016-07743 Doc Date 11 13 2017 'm 2 0 Your message is of course being forwarded to the Secretary I had intended to suggest further that you submit the substance of it to OEen Forum but as this letter was being prepared Peter LydOn informed me that you had already done this I think your piece will be a useful contribution to an important discussion although it should not be shown as having been a dissent message as well Sincerely yours Regina Bartholomew Acting Director Policy Planning Staff UNCLASSIFIED US Department of State Case No F-ZQ16-07743 Doc No 906431418 Date 11 13 2017
