Abstract

New Delhi is still opposed to a NWFZ and recommend a general and complete global disarmament. Pakistan rejected India's offer of a nuclear no-first-use agreement, but it proposed not to deploy nuclear if India reciprocates. France and UK was not clearly in favour of sanctions against India and Pakistan for their nuclear tests, but the majority of the European countries condemned the nuclear program of India. However, France favours the NWFZ (South Asian Nuclear Weapons Free Zone) and express interest in peaceful nuclear collaboration with India. New Delhi est toujours opposé à une zone exempte d'armes nucléaires et recommande un désarmement général et complet à l'échelle mondiale. Le Pakistan a rejeté l'offre de l'Inde d'un accord de non-usage en premier de l'arme nucléaire, mais il a proposé de ne pas déployer le nucléaire si l'Inde lui rendait la pareille. La France et le Royaume-Uni n'étaient pas clairement en faveur de sanctions contre l'Inde et le Pakistan pour leurs essais nucléaires, mais la majorité des pays européens a condamné le programme nucléaire de l'Inde, mais aussi les réponses apportées par le Pakistan. Cependant, la France est favorable à la NWFZ (South Asian Nuclear Weapons Free Zone) et exprime son intérêt pour une collaboration nucléaire pacifique avec l'Inde.
