Robert Einhorn Deal Quotations

I think the administration lowered the bar a bit too far. And if the deal is implemented as it currently stands, in my view there will be some negative implications for our global non-proliferation efforts. I think we'll have a harder time persuading other countries to tighten the rules while we're urging them to make exceptions.

The nuclear options that India insisted on protecting in this deal cast serious doubt on its declared policy of seeking only a credible minimum deterrent.

This deal permits India to do much more than continue producing fissile material for weapons. It allows India to vastly increase its nuclear arsenal.

The deal appears to give India complete freedom not just to continue but also to expand its production of fissile material for nuclear weapons. In the future, any reactor it designates as 'military' can be used for the weapons program. ... It's less clear what the U.S. got out of the deal.
