Trump administration silent on whether it raised India's NSG bid with China
WASHINGTON: The Trump administration on Tuesday kept mum on whether it raised the issue of India's NSG bid with the top Chinese leadership, but said it supports India's "full membership" to the four multilateral export control regimes.
China is the only major country which has been blocking India's entry into the 48-member Nuclear Suppliers Group.
The previous US administrations - that of the presidents George W Bush and Barack Obama - had put India's NSG membership on top of their top priorities.
"Since 2010, the US has made clear our support for India's full membership in the four multilateral export control regimes," a State Department spokesperson told PTI.
The spokesperson was asked about the efforts being done by the US for India becoming a member of the NSG.
The White House did not respond to a question whether India's bid for NSG membership was raised by the Trump administration with the Chinese leadership.
Trump, last month, had a successful Summit with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping in Florida and had several phone calls with him.
Trump has said several times in the public domain that he enjoys a very good relationship with Xi.
However, issues like India's membership to NSG is yet to figure in the talking points between the top officials of the Trump administration and those from the Chinese leadership.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson also visited China and has had several rounds of talks with his Chinese counterparts.
Publicly, both Trump and Tillerson have said North Korea and trade issues have been dominating their talks with China.
China is advocating a two-step "non-discriminatory" approach for admission of countries who have not signed nuclear-Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in the NSG.
As per the new stand announced by Beijing in November, it first wants to find a solution that is applicable to the admission of all non-NPT members followed by discussions to admit specific non-NPT member.
China's stand for a non-discriminatory criteria is regarded significant as Pakistan, a close ally of Beijing, too has applied for the NSG membership along with India.

China signals no change in stand on India's entry to NSG
New Delhi, DH News Service, May 9 2017, 2:21 IST
Ahead of the Nuclear Suppliers Group’s annual plenary in Switzerland next month, China made it clear that it remained opposed to India’s proposed entry into the 48-nation cartel.
Notwithstanding negotiations between the two neighbours over the past several months, China’s envoy to India, Lou Zhouhui, reiterated what the Communist country had been saying ever since it blocked New Delhi’s bid to get a seat in the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) at its last plenary in Seoul in June 2016.
“On Nuclear Suppliers Group issue, we do not oppose any country’s membership, believing that a standard for admission should be agreed upon first,” Lou said while delivering a lecture at the United Service Institution of India in New Delhi recently.
The Embassy of China in New Delhi made the text of his speech public on Monday. His comment has come just a month before the NSG is set to hold its 27th plenary in Switzerland.
Lou’s comment clearly indicated that China had not yet budged from its stand that the NSG should adopt a “two-step approach” to address the issue of admitting new members.
Beijing has been maintaining that the NSG should first “explore” through “an open and transparent” process and reach agreement on a non-discriminatory formula” to deal with the issue of granting membership to the countries, which had not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Once the non-discriminatory formula would be adopted by the NSG, the cartel should move to the second stage to take up the “country-specific membership issues”. Neither India nor Pakistan has signed the NPT.
