Australian Defence Minister Stephen Smith has backed Prime Minister Julia Gillard’s move to revoke the ban on uranium exports to India, citing New Delhi’s exemplary track record on nuclear non-proliferation.
Smith also defended the Prime Minister for not formally consulting her cabinet before the major announcement on this policy shift, contending it was her prerogative to take the matter to the cabinet, or go it alone.
