Varier, i too havent claimed the deal is good. i too, like you, said i dnt knw what the end result will be. lets wait and watch. what am i telling is that, when you look at the larger picture it seems that this deal will do more good to india than bad. It is giving India acceptance into the Nuclear group of countires without signing NPT. I feel this deal is more of a vindication of India's nuclear policies. The govt had made the 123 agreed text public and now they have made the IAEA text public. Lets go through those. We all seem to be more worried about what will happen when we conduct a nuclear test again than the fact that our existing nuclear plants are facing shortage of uranium. If the deal materialises, we will be in a position to buy uranium from the NSG countries.
