China sticks to stance of not backing India's case for NSG

BEIJING: China explicitly stated on Tuesday that it would not consider supporting India's case for entry into Nuclear Suppliers' Group until general rules for admitting other non-members are formulated.

Beijing prefers a set of general rules for countries that have not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) but seek to join the NSG.

Beijing is keen to see Pakistan, its close allay, joining the group if India makes it to the select club. This is why it would prefer to wait until situations are created that would enable Islamabad's entry into NSG, observers said.

"We will seek a solution that applies to all Non-NPT countries and then we will discuss the specific application of relevant non-NPT country," Hua Chunying, spokesperson for the Chinese foreign ministry said. "We are willing to keep communication and contact with India in this regard".

The statement came one day after talks were held between Joint Secretary (Disarmament and International Security) Amandeep Singh Gill and his Chinese counterpart Wang Qun. Hua indicated that Beijing has not changed its stance on the issue after discussions with Gill. She did not name Pakistan. After yesterday's talks, Indian and Chinese officials had described yesterday's talks as "substantive and constructive".

 

 

 

"On India's accession to the NSG, I can tell you that China's position is very clear and consistent. China attaches importance to the accession of non-Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) members into the NSG," Hua said.

 

 

 

"We will carry out relevant work based on the Seoul General Assembly and the inter-governmental process that is open and transparent," she said. "We will seek a solution that applies to all Non-NPT countries and then we will discuss the specific application of relevant non-NPT country," Hua said.

China had stonewalled India's bid at the June Plenary of the 48-member NSG in Seoul on the ground that it is not a signatory of NPT. New Delhi had obtained US support, however.

 

 

 

 

"We are willing to keep communication and contact with India in this regard," Hua said. China had taken a stand that India was not a signatory to the NPT which is necessary for entry of new members into the club which controls nuclear commerce. Monday's talks were the second round of dialogue between Indian and Chinese officials on India's admission into the NSG with the first round held in September.
