Michael Krepon India Quotations

To me, this is the most egregious aspect of the deal. We would be obliged to help India find fuel elsewhere after it tests nuclear weapons, after imposing sanctions due to our public law.

After 300 years of colonial rule, India will not follow the beat of a distant drummer, nor accept a junior partnership to Washington,

This is a very serious competition. If present trends continue, India and Pakistan could very well have greater nuclear capabilities than France and Great Britain, looking down the road.

A country-specific exemption that relaxes consensus-based rules of nuclear commerce is the wrong way to bring India inside the tent. Country-specific exemptions for friends do real damage to the standards we seek to impose on troublemakers.

It's a sweetheart deal for India ... The administration told Congress the agreement would be about the growth of India's electricity and not the growth of Indian bomb making potential and that standard clearly has not been met.
