US eyes two Indian nuclear parks
The United States expects New Delhi to announce the locations of two nuclear parks for American companies next month when Hillary Clinton makes her first visit to India as secretary of state.
“We hope to have two sites that would be announced, where American companies can go in and provide new reactors, which would be a major source of new business opportunities for American companies,” assistant secretary of state for south and central Asia Robert Blake told a Congressional panel. He sought to clear the air about slow implementation of the civil nuclear deal, asserting: “We’re making a great deal of progress. We’re most of the way there now.”
IMO: While USA so often sells defense crippleware - as is commented on in UK - it is almost certainly best for India to make progress here if possible.
