Work on to unleash civil nuclear deal: Sullivan

The US is finalising the necessary steps to remove longstanding regulations that have prevented civil nuclear cooperation between Indian nuclear entities and American companies, US National Security Advisor (NSA) Jake Sullivan said on Monday. The move is likely to make it easier for India to access sensitive US nuclear technologies that Washington DC has so far kept close to itself.

Delivering remarks on US-India ties in critical and emerging technologies (iCET) at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT-D), Sullivan said the formal paperwork on unleashing civil nuclear partnership will be done soon.

Referring to the civil nuclear deal signed between US and India under former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and ex-US President George Bush in 2007, the outgoing NSA said both countries are "yet to fully realise it".
