    Clinton pressures India to support sanctions on Iran
    By Sarath Kumara - 15 May 2012

    US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton used her three-day visit to India last week to pressure India to fall into line with US sanctions against Iran. She met Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, ruling Congress party leader Sonia Gandhi, and External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna. She also visited West Bengal and met the state’s Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

    Clinton acknowledged that Indian imports of Iranian oil had dropped. “We are aware that refineries have cut their orders and the actual purchases have been reduced, so we’re encouraged by what India has done,” she said. At the same time, she called for further cuts, saying: “If the international community eases the pressure or wavers in our resolve, Iran will have less incentive to negotiate in good faith to abandon its nuclear ambitions.”
