    Why is Japan critical to India's nuclear deals?

    Why is Japan critical to India's nuclear deals?
    Credits:
  • Japan has a strict policy barring technology exports to non-NPT signatory, nuclear weapons states.

    Hitachi owns US firm GE and Toshiba owns Westinghouse, the two US companies providing technology to India under the Indo-US deal.

    Due to issues with India's stance on the NPT, several hurdles are yet to be overcome with Westinghouse and GE.

    A deal with Japan can help clear these hurdles.
