The Indo-US nuclear deal is expected to be approved by the IAEA Board of Governors at vienna on Friday.
Indian and US Ambassadors will delivered statements at the crucial one-day meeting to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as well as by the nuclear watchdog’s Director General Mohamed ElBaradei. IAEA sources indicated that the approval process may not face any hurdles.
IAEA sources said the safeguards text is likely to be approved by a consensus but in the highly unlikely event of a vote, China as well as its ally Pakistan may well abstain.
The US has said that the pact was a net gain for global non-proliferation, placing India’s declared civilian nuclear energy plants–14 of 22 existing or planned reactors–under regular IAEA watch.
Atomic Energy Commission Chief Anil Kakodkar and other top nuclear officials are here for negotiations on the safeguards agreement and an Additional Protocol to be cleared by the IAEA and to convince NSG members to give New Delhi a “clean” waiver for implementation of the Indo-US nuclear deal.
