India would be denied fuel supplies if it conducted a nuclear test – India’s nuclear freedom in jeopardy: secret US letter confirms
In the middle of all hoopla on NSG waiver, Manmohan Singh finally realizes that Bush Administration’s real intension is to put the noose around India’s neck. New Delhi is taking up with the Bush Administration the State Department's controversial letter to US Congress which stated that it would be denied fuel supplies if it conducted a nuclear test.
The 26-page letter, released in Washington on the eve of the crucial NSG meeting in Vienna, created a furor in India.
The Congress Party and the UPA coalition under Sonia Gandhi knew this all along. PM Manmohan Singh did hide the facts from India’s common people and the opposition political parties.
In the controversial disclosures before the NSG meeting, the US had made it clear that it would stop fuel supplies and other nuclear cooperation if India conducted a nuclear test. The US position in the letter appeared at variance with New Delhi's interpretation of some key clauses of the Indo-US nuclear deal.
the letter released by a well-known opponent of the deal, Howard Berman, Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, contained an assertion by the Bush Administration that its assurances of nuclear supplies to India were not meant to insulate it against the consequences of a nuclear test.
