In U.S., Indian PM touts nuclear deal, infrastructure | Politics | Reuters
Obama should kill this deal as soon as possible. Seriously. For a candidacy that pledged to eliminate nuclear threats, going forth with a backdoor deal that guts the NPT is unbelievable.
Obama should stand up to the Indians and state "Sign the NPT and we'll have a deal."
Setting a precedent that you can get nuclear power deals without signing the NPT is an awful, awful idea.
