It is natural everybody wants to get max out of it. USA politicians are trying get india closer to NPT CTBT (thru backdoor), and India trying to get nuclear weapon state status. It is good that Indian scientist community are fighting for Indian right and so also Indian foreign secretary. This negotitaion should be win win for both side. India should not fall weak and should negotiate for it's rights clearly, let american management manage the congress in US. We have big business bait for them hanging in the form of MRCA tender, and hope they will look into helping India. India can not sign NPT or CTBT at this stage as it arsenals are negligible compare to China. Chinese did after building huge nuclear deterrent capacity and ultimately got recognized as nuclear weapon state. India can not expect shortcuts it has to build it's capacity to become recognized.
