India’s leaders should make the same pledges, and should also join other nuclear powers in signing the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. Instead, they have rejected these steps and insist on unrestricted access to international assistance in producing enough fissile material for as many as 50 weapons a year, far exceeding what is believed to be India’s current capacity.
印度的领导人本应该做出同样的承诺，并且还应该和其他的核国家一起签署《全面禁止核试验条约》。然而，他们却反其道而行之，坚持在生产可裂变燃料方面不受限制地得到国际援助。这些燃料每年足够生产50枚核武器，这远远高出外界公认的印度现有生产能力。
