	ALCAN v. US
		The Free-Trade Agreement is not a “treaty” according to Article II of the United States Constitution and moreover has no independent effect in U.S. law.
		While, as with any legislative history, the origin of the language of General Note 3(c)(vii)(B) may well be relevant to the construction of its terms, it does not alter that we are interpreting statutory language and presents no obstacle to recognition of the de minimis principle in this case.
		Treaties are interpreted as contracts between nations, see In re The Amiable Isabella, 10 U.S. (6 Wheat.) 1, 46 (1821); as such, general rules of construction apply, including weight given the intent of the parties.

		Today India’s mutual defence treaty with Russia has been watered down and, hence, is no longer a deterrent to the projection of US power in the region.
		However, land warfare in the subcontinent cannot be part of projecting US power in the region today, as it would involve high casualties amid limited tactical possibilities and forward basing facilities for US expeditionary forces on a scale required to fight the Indian army.
		Economic and diplomatic instruments were also deployed to cajole the political establishment of the country for a consensus on the treaty.
