Thank you for your question. If you will permit me, I shall answer in English.
Mr. Chairman, it is true that India violated a norm in 1974 with the detonation of a device that was made possible by Canadian materials. India paid a price for that at the time.
But the world went on, and nuclear weapons multiplied. India began to take the position that it would not join the non-proliferation treaty as long as it permitted the five major states, which happened to be the five permanent members of the Security Council, to retain their nuclear weapons.
Now, the non-proliferation treaty doesn't really do that; it orders the pursuit of negotiations in good faith. But we've all seen that that hasn't happened, and thus India took the position that the NPT is a discriminatory treaty. Then it went ahead and developed its own nuclear weapons, for the sake of prestige and its own security questions, considering that it's surrounded by nuclear weapon states.
I was in India recently, and I met with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. He informed me, on this subject we're talking about today, that India will participate in global negotiations. India's position is that as long as other states have them, they feel they're going to have to have them. But they don't really want to have a nuclear weapon, and it will participate.
For my final sentence in this response, I call to your attention that when President Obama conducted his summit of 47 states in Washington last year, he invited the leaders of India, Pakistan, and Israel, and they all came. They are not members of the NPT. I think President Obama did that because he was laying the groundwork for a new global treaty.
