India’s Nuke Policy Aimed At China – Arms Control Association
By Koushik Das
The Arms Control Association, a US-based national non-partisan-membership organisation, has revealed in its latest report that India’s nuclear policy is aimed at China, and not Pakistan.
The co-authors of the report, titled ‘The Threat Assessment Brief for Asia’, have made the revelation after closely monitoring nuclear policies of three Asian powers. According to Greg Thielmann and David Logan of the Princeton University, India considers China as its main rival in the region, while Pakistan considers India as its main enemy and China considers the US as a major threat. The co-authors have said that the three Asian powers have also taken necessary steps to safeguard their territories from their ‘enemies’.
