INDIA -- India won't take part in an international agreement to curb the spread of ballistic missiles, the foreign ministry said yesterday.

Ministry spokesman Navtej Sarna said India supports missile curbs, but takes issue with the agreement because it "refers to ballistic missiles and space launch vehicles without a proper distinction."

India is the second major country to oppose the code. China said earlier this month that it won't take part. The code calls on nations to curb proliferation and share information about testing ballistic missiles.
