Despite intense lobbying, the proposal to give India an exemption from global nuclear trade standards is in deep trouble and there is still a long distance to go, a prominent arms-control think-tank opposed to the Indo-US nuclear deal has said.
"While there is still a distance to go, the proposal to give India a clean exemption from global nuclear trade standards is in deep trouble" Daryl Kimball, the Executive Director of the Arms Control Association, has said.
"... As ACA had predicted, but to the apparent surprise of the Indian and US governments, more than 20 states essentially said 'no thanks' and proposed more than 50 amendments and modifications that would establish some basic, but vitally important restrictions and conditions on nuclear trade with India," he said in an e-mail Statement.
