ControversiesA report written by Siddharth Varadarajan and published in The Hindu quoted Rademaker as acknowledging that the United States had coerced India into voting against Iran at the International Atomic Energy Agency. Though Rademaker has never disputed the accuracy of the remarks attributed to him, the U.S. Ambassador in Delhi, David C. Mulford, issued a press release stating that "Mr. Rademaker is not a U.S. official and the statements attributed to him are inaccurate." The Hindu, however, denied this, claiming that the quotes attributed to Rademaker were "wholly accurate". Personal lifeRademaker is married to Danielle Pletka, the vice president for foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute.[1] Rademaker has four children: Andrew, Olivia, Sophia, and Nicky.
