Cute Idea. But it will never work - my comments) Under this proposal, Mr. Aziz wants India 1)to disavow the proposed nuclear doctrine' 2)refrain from further nuclear tests and 3)adhere to the CTBT 4)avoid operational deployment of nuclear weapons 5)reduce its stockpile of nuclear material, 6)stop development of military capabilities, and 7)cut back on its acquisition of conventional weapons. 8) `India should open negotiations with Pakistan to achieve balance in fissile material stockpiles' (India's main objective is global abolition of Nuclear weapons- my comments) Mr. Singh reaffirmed India's 1) "undiluted' commitment to global abolition of nuclear weapons. 2) he called for immediate steps to reduce the nuclear danger. 3) called on the other nuclear powers to ``reorient' their nuclear doctrines towards a ``no-first-use' and ``non- use' against non-nuclear States and 4) to delegitimise nuclear weapons globally 5) India has already adopted a doctrine of no- first-use. 6) to look beyond the FMCT towards the elimination of nuclear weapons, 7) ``strategic restraint cannot be limited to South Asia', but must be promoted among all the nuclear powers in the world. ,
