PINDROP - Nepal ft. Michael Kugelman & Santosh Sharma Poudel

Nepal, as an old king said, is a "yam between two boulders" -- namely, China and India. Today, we might add a third boulder to the mix: the United States. As Nepal tries to navigate relationships between these three larger and often-competing states, it continues to strive towards economic development and strengthen a new and fragile democracy. To discuss this and more, PINDROP World News welcomes the director of the South Asia Institute at the Wilson Center, Michael Kugelman, and co-founder of the Nepal Institute for Policy Research, Santosh Sharma Poudel. ------- PINDROP World News is produced by Francisco "A.J." Camacho, Nicholas Castillo, and Diego Austin.
