China may feel threatened with Indo-Japan nuclear ties, say analysts

New Delhi, Sept 1 (ANI): Analysts in New Delhi said on Monday that China could see a nuclear deal between India and Japan as a potential threat to itself. Before his visit to Japan, Prime Minister, Narendra Modi listed manufacturing, infrastructure and energy as key areas for cooperation. Modi will also lobby for Abe to back a nuclear energy pact, although hopes of striking a similar accord to the one reached with the United States in 2008 had faded in the run-up to the visit. Analysts say that a nuclear deal between India and Japan would raise concerns in China which would see such a pact as a threat to itself. However, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said negotiations were on for a civil nuclear agreement with Japan, indicating that the deal is not likely to be sealed during his ongoing five-day visit to the country. Japan is known to have been sensitive about the nuclear issue seeing that it has been the only country in the world to have suffered two nuclear attacks. It wants explicit guarantees from India, which has not signed the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, to limit atomic tests and allow closer inspection of its facilities to ensure that spent fuel is not used to make bombs.
