WASHINGTON (AP) - Meetings meant to jump-start a U.S.-Indian civilian nuclear cooperation plan ended Tuesday with the United States saying a final agreement could be settled this month.
India's foreign secretary, Shiv Shankar Menon, came to Washington for talks with U.S. Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns about a deal U.S. officials have portrayed as a way to transform a strategic relationship with a rising, democratic power in Asia.
"We're both confident that we can do this," Menon told reporters. "The quicker the better."
