Discussions on a US-China nuclear deal began in 1981. An 'Agreement Between the United States and the People's Republic of China Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy' was signed on July 13, 1985. However, it was approved by the US Congress only on March 18, 1998, after almost 13 years of excruciating reviews and presidential waivers. In 2007, China placed its first orders for nuclear reactors consequent to its civil nuclear cooperation agreement.
So how does India dare to negotiate a even better deal with the US and that too in a shorter time period ? That is why China is very suspicious of US and Indian intentions. And the Left parties are not acting in our national interests...If their beloved China can sign a N-deal with the US, why not India? And why pull down a Govt. over that?
