The decision was taken at the two-day plenary meeting of the grouping in Vienna.
In a significant development, elite export control regime Wassenaar Arrangement (WA) on Thursday decided to admit India as its new member, which is expected to raise New Delhi’s stature in the field of non-proliferation besides helping it acquire critical technologies.
The decision was taken at the two-day plenary meeting of the grouping in Vienna.
“Existing controls were further clarified regarding ground stations for spacecraft, submarine diesel engines, technology related to intrusion software, software for testing gas turbine engines, analogue-to-digital converters, non- volatile memories and information security,” the grouping said in the statement at the end of the two-day meeting.
The next regular plenary meeting of WA will be held in Vienna in Austria in December 2018, it was announced.
