Former US President George W Bush today favoured a United Nations Security Council seat for India, saying it has arrived as a strong democratic country in the world. He also wanted India and the US to work together to win the war on terror in Afghanistan to bring peace and stability in the region. Speaking at the HT Leadership Summit in New Delhi, he said, India is a tolerant, peaceful and multi-religious democracy and must get a seat on the UN high table. Mr Bush, who visited India in 2006 when the two sides chartered out the road map for further strengthening Indo-US strategic partnership, said the two countries shared the same values of freedom and democracy. He wholeheartedly agreed with US President Barack Obama that the US-India relations were not only one of the most important ties in the world, but they should also be one of the best.
