India's neighborhood is becoming a lot more hospitable these days. Its longtime rival Pakistan is now agreeing on a path to peace that it calls "irreversible." Just last week, China's Premier visited India and the leaders from both countries agreed to a "strategic partnership for peace and prosperity."

Diplomatic pledges between peaceful nations don't usually generate as many headlines as rumblings of war, but when the two countries come with the economic clout and populations of India and China, it is a good bet that such a move is going to shake things up on the world stage.

So how does the rising power of India, linked with the economic muscle of China and its peace with Pakistan affect U.S. interests at home and abroad?
