It looks like the Nuclear deal with the U.S. and India mean a lot for the world in the future. For one, it seems the U.S.'s main political objective is in the long term foreign policy strategy of "containing or balancing" China's rise in power. The Nuclear energy the U.S. is giving or selling to India is for the use of energy, but, with this then India will be able to use their own nuclear energy to make nuclear weapons. The other side affects of this are big as well. For U.S. Wall-Mart or Monsanto share holders, its profitable thing, one part of the deal is that India open up its country to Wall-Mart which will start next year with 500 stores, which could have a damming effect on the way people in India buy and sell and work. Whats bigger than that is the part with Monsanto which owns and sells rights to farming seeds that are supposed to be good, but only harvest one time then the farmers have to buy again every year. India is making its farmers buy them, which binds them to Monsanto.
for that conversation go to about the fifth paragraph of Vandana on this web-page
