IAEA clears India safeguards agreement
The
Board of Governor of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
today unanimously adopted the India-specific safeguards agreement, a
key step in operationalisation of the Indo-US nuclear deal.
With
the go-ahead from IAEA, India will now seek a waiver from 45 nuclear
supplier nations allowing trade with a non-NPT (Non-Proliferation
Treaty) country and then ratification from the US Congress, to finalise
the deal.
The deal would open to India the world market in
nuclear fuel and technology for civilian uses after an embargo of three
decades.
