This is from the report you provided. Look under 06/11/98, i.e. almost a month after India's nuclear tests...

In more general terms, Dr. Oehler explained that the Clinton Administration did not impose the most
severe, Category I sanctions after the 34 M-11s were transferred in 1992 in order to maintain as
much "negotiating flexibility" as possible so as not to imperil the Sino-US bilateral relationship with
such a strong penalty. In Oehler's words, "Because of their interest in wanting to preserve their
negotiating flexibility in my view, there was going to be little likelihood that the evidence would ever be
high enough to do that [impose Category I sanctions]." Dr. Oehler continued that the White House and the
State Department argued that the intelligence evidence of complete M-11 transfers was
"insufficient" to trigger the imposition of Category I sanctions, mainly because the missiles were still in
crates. He said "Because of the impact of the sanctions, they needed to set the level of evidence very
high."
