India represents a sharp contrast to China in the small size of its goods trade. Although India’s GDP is a third that of China, its global trade is only about 12 percent as large while its trade with United States is less than 10 percent as large. Even more striking, Japan’s trade with India is less than 5 percent of its trade with China.
