Today Movement at IAEA (1)   18-Jul-08 12:42Tracked by (0)  
Posted by:   zoombusiness on ( 18-Jul-08 12:42 )
The Bush Administration has despatched a top envoy to Vienna to bolster support for the Indo-US civil nuclear deal on Friday when India will brief the IAEA Board of Governors on the safeguards agreement.

William Burns, US Undersecretary of State for Political affairs, will be at the headquarters of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) en route to Geneva for a weekend meeting over Iran's controversial nuclear programme.

As the UPA government braced for a trust vote on July 22 in the Lok Sabha, India on Thursday said it has decided to scale down Friday’s special briefing for the IAEA on the safeguards agreement and other aspects of Indo-US nuclear deal, confining it to its 35-member Board of Governors and NSG countries which are not part of the Board. Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon will be presenting India's case.

The IAEA has said its Board of Governors will meet on August 1 to discuss a draft safeguards agreement with India, necessary for the implementation of the deal.

In addition, India must obtain a waiver from the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), a group of 45 states that export nuclear fuel and technology before it gets the approval of the US Congress.
