Received; read twice and placed on the calendar 
AN ACT

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Henry J. Hyde United 
States and India Nuclear Cooperation Promotion Act of

them are critical objectives for United States foreign 
policy; 
(2) sustaining the NPT and strengthening its 
implementation, particularly its verification and 
compliance, is the keystone of United States non-
proliferation policy; 
(3) the NPT has been a significant success in 
preventing the acquisition of nuclear weapons capa-
bilities and maintaining a stable international secu-
rity situation; 
(4) countries that have never become a party to 
the NPT and remain outside that treaty’s legal re-
gime pose a potential challenge to the achievement 
of the overall goals of global nonproliferation, be-
cause those countries have not undertaken the 
NPT’s international obligation to prohibit the spread 
of dangerous nuclear technologies; 
(5) it is in the interest of the United States to 
the fullest extent possible to ensure that those coun-
tries that are not NPT members are responsible 
with any nuclear technology they develop; 
(6) it is in the interest of the United States to 
enter into an agreement for nuclear cooperation as 
set forth in section 123 of the Atomic Energy Act

(1) Oppose the development of a capability to 
produce nuclear weapons by any non-nuclear weapon 
state, within or outside of the Treaty on the Non- 
Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (21 UST 483; 
commonly referred to as the ‘‘Nuclear Non-Pro-
liferation Treaty’’ or the ‘‘NPT’’). 
(2) Encourage states party to the NPT to in-
terpret the right to ‘‘develop research, production 
and use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes’’, as 
described in Article IV of the NPT, as being a quali-
fied right that is conditioned by the overall purpose 
of the NPT to prevent the spread of nuclear weap-
ons and nuclear weapons capability, including by re-
fraining from all nuclear cooperation with any state 
party that has not demonstrated that it is in full 
compliance with its NPT obligations, as determined 
by the IAEA. 
(3) Strengthen the Nuclear Suppliers Group 
guidelines concerning consultation by members re-
garding violations of supplier and recipient under-
standings by instituting the practice of a timely and 
coordinated response by NSG members to all such 
violations, including termination of nuclear transfers 
to an involved recipient, that discourages individual 
NSG members from continuing cooperation with

Security Initiative; 
(B) formal commitment to the Statement 
of Interdiction Principles;
