US companies that want to sell civilian nuclear power plants to China have run into a roadblock: The Chinese bluntly refuse to promise not to share the technology with other countries.

China says it is willing to negotiate bans on transfers to specific countries, but rejects a generic ban on any transfers as it wants the profits from nuclear sales.--Stephen V Cole
