World leaders of many countries including Canada, New Zealand and Iran have congratulated Barack Obama on his historic victory in the US presidential elections.

The democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama backs the Indo-US
nuke deal but may he be under pressure to reinforce
non-proliferation rules that could restrict transfer of technology and
fuel to India.
