A 45-nation meeting in Vienna on whether to lift a ban on trading nuclear fuel and technology with India has ended inconclusively.
20 countries in the Nuclear Suppliers Group raised concerns about the United States' proposal for a trade exemption for India. A potential bilateral nuclear fuel deal between the US and India has disturbed some countries and activists because India is not a member of the global Non-Proliferation Treaty and developed nuclear weapons with technology imported ostensibly for civilian ends. The group has agreed to meet again early next month to try and resolve the impasse.
