'NSG exemption mandatory for China-Pak nuke deal'
PRESS TRUST OF INDIA
Washington, June 16: Seeking clarifications from China on the sale of two nuclear reactors to Pakistan, the US has insisted that the deal needs an exemption from the Nuclear Supplier’s Group to go ahead.
“We have asked China to clarify the details of its sale of additional nuclear reactors to Pakistan,” State Department spokesperson P J Crowley told reporters at his daily news briefing.
He said the deal “appears to extend beyond cooperation that was grandfathered when China was approved for membership in the NSG.”
