re: Nuclear Deal
by pankaj on Dec 23, 2006 04:18 AM

why we are still so naive about foreign policy. Our foreign policy should have one and only one objective how to make India strong. Once you are strong then you can amend rules that do not suit you and no one will dare say anything. We still believe in misplaced notion of fairness. Since the begining of life on this planet all the treaties were reinterpreded by the stronger party. Jiski lathi uski bhainse - don't link this with anarchy. Look at colonization history -- all European Powers bended, made or broke rules as and when it suited them. And more recently - USA. What was the justfication of invading IRAQ. The need of the hour is to make ourselves strong -- imagine every village turining into small manufacturing unit and villagers turning into enterprenauer. Once we achieve that than we can sit for 10 years to parse out why some clauses are not to be looked the way US is looking. I hope Dr. Singh is thinking like that. The only question that need to be asked to Mr. Sikri -- why 50 year have not been good enough to research and develop defence and critical resources needs indigenously.
