Robert Einhorn Quotations

The nuclear options that India insisted on protecting in this deal cast serious doubt on its declared policy of seeking only a credible minimum deterrent.

I personally woke up this morning and I didn't know about it.

If the approach we took with the North Koreans gave the impression to the Iranians that the European proposal is unworkable because of a lack of American support, that could be a problem,

This deal permits India to do much more than continue producing fissile material for weapons. It allows India to vastly increase its nuclear arsenal.

Sure, the North Koreans can do tremendous damage in South Korea through rocket attacks, artillery and missiles but invading the South is totally unrealistic in this stage of the game.

This wasn't a big substantive reconciliation. This was an agreement to set aside a disagreement and move ahead with the talks.

The deal appears to give India complete freedom not just to continue but also to expand its production of fissile material for nuclear weapons. In the future, any reactor it designates as 'military' can be used for the weapons program. ... It's less clear what the U.S. got out of the deal.

Basically the nuclear establishment of India dug in its heels, Prime Minister Singh backed them up, and the administration caved again.

Obviously, the United States does not have the final say on who has the right to pursue civil nuclear energy programs,

The North Koreans should not be compensated for agreeing to stop conducting an act which they should not be conducting in the first place.
