Prof Stephen P. Cohen, (a political scientist and expert on South Asia) states in his book—India: Emerging Power—that for many foreign officials, dealing with New Delhi can be a frustrating experience. Cohen says that Indians are patient negotiators who will wait until the terms improve.

Cohen further states that Indian diplomats do not put their careers at risk by failing to reach an agreement. Indians will drag out negotiations in the hope that prices will fall or terms will soft.
