Crispin Rovere: India’s Uranium Leads To Disarmament

Cranberra Times reported a Crispin Rovere column discussing the pros of selling uranium to India, which may lead to disarmament.

As quoted in the market news:

It is true that the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty ranks among the most successful arms control agreements in history. Only three states refuse to sign (India, Israel, and Pakistan) with one withdrawn (North Korea). Yet the NPT is not an end in itself. It is a means to a much higher objective; the emancipation of humanity from the dangers of nuclear war.
