Devils advocate relationship

The one show that continues to amaze me is Karan Thapar's "Devil's advocate.". The quality of questions and the responses received are unparalleled in Indian Television. Mr. Thapar is a skilled interviewer who astounds both his interviewee and his audience. Today however his mastery in interviewing was matched in content and profundity by his interviewee Mr. Roemer, former congressman and the current US Ambassador to India. The two discussed issues that spilled into every small aspect of the plethora of issues and opportunities the two nations share. Their conversation quite nearly reflected the relationship India shares with the USA. Democracy, freedom, unyielding character and of course the common English language that has knitted the two nations as one. The ending was imminently the stand-out part of the entire interview. When asked about the pros and cons of nuclear energy to power Indian homes and Mr.Thapar's comment that electricity could shock-circuit the 'strategic relationship', Mr. Roemer cool as ever replied that the electricty will only energize the relationship.
