Thiruvananthapuram: : Asserting that the Left would continue to oppose the Indo-US nuclear deal, CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat on Tuesday warned that if the pact was operationalised, India would face the same fate as Pakistan, which has ended up becoming a "junior unequal" strategic partner of the US.

“The ultimate aim of the deal was to bind India as a junior, unequal strategic partner of the US to serve its interests in the region just as Pakistan,” Karat said while inaugurating a one-day seminar on the Indo-US nuclear deal organised by the AKG Research and Study Centre. Referring to media reports on the Pakistan Army Chief being summoned to an American warship in the Indian Ocean for discussions by the US Joint Chief of Staff, Karat said that India would also end up the same way if the deal goes through.
