Global issues: Nuclear Proliferation - Washington Nuclear Summit
Recommend on Google+
President Obama is hosting a summit of forty-seven nations in Washington focused on securing nuclear materials from terrorists and criminals - a key part of this agenda is to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons. The summit in Washington may produce commitment to a plan for securing nuclear materials, largely because of President Obama’s seeming willingness to commit the U.S. to nonproliferation and disarmament goals.
More analysis will undoubtedly be available when the summit wraps up tomorrow. Here are a few helpful links:
