Saxbe adapts to diplomacy as outspoken style softens
Ambassador William Saxbe, in New Delhi for two weeks, shifts from outspoken Washington politician to cautious diplomat. He avoids public controversy, says frankness works at home but not in India, and notes sensitivity over external interference. He compares the ambassadorship to college graduation, and rejects lecturing India on its internal affairs.
