NAN A. S. HAYWORTH: “The White House agrees to a transfer of nuclear technology to the Communist Chinese in exchange for a written promise…”

On the recordOctober 30, 1997
The White House agrees to a transfer of nuclear technology to the Communist Chinese in exchange for a written promise that the Chinese will not share that technology with Iran. We are not talking neckties or nectarines or notebooks. We are not talking conventional trade here. We are talking nuclear technology. We are going to give that to Communist China? Monte Hall would not even make a deal like that on his old game show. There must be a sweetener here, Mr. Speaker.
