Swamy flays Left on nuclear deal
Special Correspondent
CHENNAI: Janata Party president Subramanian Swamy on Monday described as “knee jerk anti-Americanism and pathological hatred of the Leftists for the US,” the Left Front’s reaction to U.S. Ambassador David Mulford’s remark, during a television interview, that the civil nuclear agreement was a now or never offer to India.
In a statement here, he said the Ambassador was “stating a fact since the Indian government negotiated the deal all the way with the U.S. giving the impression that it will sign the deal while keeping the Indian opposition parties out of the loop of negotiations on such a crucial matter.”
India should have made clear on day one that no deal would be signed unless the U.S. formally first recognised India as a nuclear weapons power. That was the objection of the democratic opposition in India. Till that objection was met, India could live with “never” option offered by the U.S. Ambassador, Dr. Swamy said.
