Washington, July 9 (ANI): The United States is not concerned about losing out to the French and the Russians in the field of civilian nuclear cooperation with India, a senior State Department official has said.
Participating in a interactive web chat with Indian journalists from Washington, Robert O. Blake, Jr., Assistant Secretary, Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs, said: "We think that there are really quite important opportunities for American companies still. Two reactor parks have been set-aside for American companies both in Gujarat and in Andhra Pradesh. We're very happy that the Indian government remains committed to the commitments that it made after President Obama's important visit to India last November."
"We look forward specifically to India's ratification of the Convention on Supplementary Compensation, and to moving forward with some of the more technical aspects of things like the 810 assurances. As far as we know, those remain on track," Blake added. (ANI)
