India should turn to Russia for N-cooperation, if US drives a bad bargain for India. Right now, Russia too is being rejected and antagonized by the West due to their Missile Shield, which is why they have withdrawn from CFE Treaty. India should make common cause with Russia, in rejecting these Western-sponsored containment agendas.

Russia cannot support Indian cause of Nuclear power coz of US sanctions on India. If Russia moves out and helps India then it will loose all the funding it is currently getting from US, IMF and other sources. Thats the main reason why India is pursuing actively with US to make deals with US.

You are talking Rubbish. Russia is the biggest producer and exporter of oil and gas. It is flooded with money. It has paid back all debts to IMF. US sanctions on India since 1974 never affected Russia or the Soviet Union supplying everything India needs for nuclear enery. Everything came from the Soviet Union and Russia, India has produced nothing on its own. Thus, India can continue very well without the Indo-US treaty.

Percy Panthaki, India's foremost academician and politician, who has been the brains behind every single political and economic move in the last 15 years sitting in the PMO along with collaborators like Montek Singh and Guneet Singh should be at the forefront of the Nuke Deal. The world will be introduced to the metaphoric descriptive "The 60000 Ton Gorilla" after he performs feats for India. Up with Percy Panthaki!
