You don't understand.
Even if the two regulatory frameworks contain exactly the same words, they will still be *legally* different frameworks. Until the two are declared to be legally equivalent and acceptable, it will be illegal to export nuclear materials.
Now, how long do you think it will take the lawyers and bureaucrats to declare equivalence?

I agree she cannot get a good fair deal. Neither could anybody else.
The crap deal is as good as anybody could have achieved in the circumstances.
