US may turn a blind eye to China-Pakistan n-deal

Even as two noted American expert asked the United States to block China-Pakistan nuclear deal, Washington indicate that it would not get in the way if it was reliable with the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) system.

"I do not know if this will come up under secretary’s come across in China this week, 'State Department lecturer PJ Crowley told reporters Monday when asked if the desk of State Hillary Clinton would take it up with her interlocutors in Beijing.

"We are chatting with China to a greater extent on the implication of this accord. It has a long history to it," he said when asked about China-Pakistan accord will come up on the ongoing strategic and financial dialogue with China in Beijing, and one with India here next week.

But we will try to ensure that this accord should go forward, it is in harmony with the rules of the Nuclear supplier Group, "Crowley said.

Crowley's commentary came as Lisa Curtis and Nicholas Hamisevicz, South Asia expert at the Heritage base, a Washington think tank, called the Obama management to block China-Pakistan deal with India and Pakistan had a very different sharing lines.

There are signs Obama management is softening its position on China-Pakistan Nuclear collaboration, they said, noting U.S. officials have avoided urgent China to move forward with a contract to supply two new nuclear reactors to Pakistan.

"The Obama administration's policy stands in contrast to the previous Bush administration, which actively sought to prevent further Chinese help for Pakistan's nuclear program," Curtis and Hamisevicz said.

"Given the wide sharing that was the result of the Pakistan-based AQ Khan network and the sustained concern over the survival of terrorist networks in Pakistan, wants access to nuclear technology-a nod from Washington to further China-Pakistan nuclear collaboration is short sighted, they speak.

The quarrel that the China-Pakistan nuclear reactor deal should be seen as the United States-India civilian nuclear deal "discount on large increase records of Pakistan and India, the different regulatory requirements in general compulsory by the United States against China, and presence of the Pakistan-based terrorist groups seeking nuclear weapons knowledge, "they said.

An Obama administration's decision to allow China and Pakistan nuclear agreement to facilitate unhampered would be a high-stakes diplomatic game, the two experts said. 'Beijing is likely to lower the American acceptance while ongoing only the most reluctant cooperation of America's uppermost international priorities. “

"While Pakistan's greater than before access to civilian nuclear knowledge without adequate legal consistency and warrant represents a potential propagation threat and danger of nuclear refuge in the subcontinent," Curtis and Hamisevicz said.
