India: Joint Panel Seeks to Accelerate U.S. Technology Transfers The United States and India plan to create a joint panel to encourage the sale of complex U.S. technology — including material that can be used for nuclear and space programs — to the South Asian state, the two countries said yesterday (see GSN, Oct. 17, 2001). “The group would expeditiously work toward developing a new statement of principles governing bilateral cooperation in high-technology trade … including ways to increase trade in dual use goods and technologies,” the countries said in a joint statement. Officials agreed to the panel after two days of discussions between U.S. Undersecretary of Commerce Kenneth Juster and Indian Foreign Secretary Kanwal Sibal. Transfer of advanced U.S. technologies to India was banned until last year, when India became one of the first countries to support the U.S. war on terrorism (Reuters/CNN.com, Nov. 14).
