  • Newspaper Analysis and Summarry– 12Th February 2015 NATIONAL India-U.S
    CURRENT AFFAIRS Newspaper Analysis and Summarry– 12th February 2015 NATIONAL India-U.S. deal short on clarity: Russia – The Hindu Calling the India-U.S. nuclear agreement a “breakthrough” is premature, says Russia‟s Ambassador to India Alexander Kadakin, who has called the announcements made during U.S. President Barack Obama‟s visit “only promises with a dose of euphoria.” In an exclusive interview to The Hindu , Mr. Kadakin rejected the idea that Russia felt the competition from the U.S. following the agreement, but said: “Russia today remains the only partner of India which is actually contributing to its peaceful nuclear programme.” “It is too early to speak about „breakthroughs‟ because of a lack of complete clarity, as not a single nail has been driven in any [American nuclear reactor] construction sites,” he said. “These are so far only commitments and promises, plus a dose of euphoria, which is not the best vehicle either in diplomacy or realpolitik.” Mr. Kadakin‟s responses, given in writing, to questions from The Hindu are significant as they indicate an unease in Moscow over closer ties between India and the U.S., especially in the nuclear sphere. In December, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that 12 new reactors will be built by Russia in India, in addition to the operational and under- construction “Kudankulam-series” reactors (KKNPP 1&2 and 3&4) in Tamil Nadu. Last week, Russian officials released a statement alleging that the cost of power from the proposed U.S. reactors would be double that from Russian projects in India.
