United States on Tuesday said, it is fully committed to the implementation of India-US Civil Nuclear deal. The assurance came after the NSG recently revised its guidelines on supply of modern technology for Enrichment and Reprocessing, ENR, to the states, which are not signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Addressing a joint press conference in New Delhi after two-and-a-half hour talks with her Indian counterpart S.M. Krishna, the US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton said that issues, including nuclear liability and ratifying the convention on supplementary compensation by India before the year-end need to be addressed.
Ms Clinton said, India and America are making great strides in expanding their ties on security and counter terrorism. After the second Indo-US Strategic Dialogue in New Delhi on Tuesday, she said that strengthening of military ties between the two countries including the sale of defence technologies will help the Indian-American militaries to work together in a constructive way and to strengthen maritime security. On trade ties, the US Secretary of State said, both the countries can take further steps to reduce barriers, open up markets and encourage business partnerships to create jobs and opportunities for millions of people.
