“Democrats will continue to invest in a long-term strategic partnership with India,” the party’s platform draft for 2016 released on Friday has said. “Democrats will address the detrimental role Iran plays in the region and will robustly enforce and, if necessary, strengthen non-nuclear sanctions. American leadership is essential to keeping us safe and our economy growing in the years ahead,” the platform draft, that will be discussed by a full platform committee meeting in Orlando this week, has said. We will push back against North Korean aggression and press China to play by the rules. Iran is the leading state sponsor of terrorism,” it said.
