Title: The third non-proliferation treaty review conference: A critical deadline

Conference · · Nucl. Mater. Manage.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6631371

If the Non-Proliferation Treaty is to survive, the next (1985) review conference must not be, like the last one (1980), an occasion for bitter complaints but, instead, an occasion for ratifying accomplishments, for rededication to the treaty's principles, for luring new adherents, and for demonstrating that peaceful applications can be pursued without proliferation hazard. To bring about such a conference, the short intervening time must be used to address on an urgent basis the grievances voiced in 1980. Needed are some real movement toward arms control, significant enhancement of technical assistance efforts (including establishment of an International Institute on Nuclear Safety), and progress toward internationalization of sensitive aspects of the fuel cycle.
