Finance Minister P Chidambaram today said that the new US president Barack Obama's anti-outsourcing stand will not impact Indo-US economic relations.

"I am very confident that US-India relations will only be stronger in the future. A comment here, a comment there about outsourcing should not bother us," Finance Minister said in his reactions after Obama was elected the US president.

Once he is in office, he will realise that in this interconnected world countries have to work together, added Chidambaram.

Obama, during his election campaign, was opposed to outsourcing jobs to other developing countries like India.
