UN asks India, Pak, Israel to join NPT, CTBT

You wish.

THis Review Conference was a success for the NAM who put a rein in the mouth of the USA and their client Israel by insisting on the Middle east Nuclear Weapons Free Zone. The USA hasd planned to make an example of Iran but it backfired.

This is the beginning. It is no longer the Wet's world. Asia and Africa are standing up and this is something new for them.

Let the USA ratify the CTBT before it speaks about India and Pakistan.

Your point is correct. How can the US thr UN ask all nations to ratify the CTBT when two of most powerful nations USA and China have not done so? India had made this point several times clearly and have refused to sign the same unless all nations incl US put their stamp on it.

Else the only way out is to renegotiate the whole treaty and frame it taking into account the views of all nations, not just big powers.

Here is further proof that the UN is just a barking dog for the nuclear haves.
Racism and colonialism are well and alive.

India should not sign the NPT, CTBT or FMCT

India can certainly sign the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty of 1968 but as a Nuclear Weapons Power. Signatories to the NPT belong to two categories. Those who signed as nuclear weapons powers i.e. who has already exploded a nuclear device before 1968, it was obligatory on these powers not part with weapons technology. The other group was the rest of the world who signed in as non nuclear powers with a promise not to weaponise and use nuclear energy only for peaceful purposes under IAEA inspection.

We did not sign the treaty in 1968, and so did Pakistan, Israel and North Korea. Our argument was the treaty was discriminatory.
The treaty divided the world into nuclear haves and have nots.

If the UN wants us to sign, then the treaty has to be amended to allow India to sign in as a nuclear weapons power. If the UN is an enlightened body then it must not stupidly ask us to sign in as a non nuclear power, we have our security concerns and we wont sign the treaty in its present form under any circumstances.

As regards the CTBT, we have already declared a self imposed moratorium on testing.

But if we sign the CTBT, then we will also be asked to sign the Fissile Material Cut Of Treaty which prevents us from enriching Uranium or Plutonium for our strategic weapons.
