Summary / Abstract (Note) | But you might think so if you listen to world leaders right now. In his first address to the U.N. Security Council, U.S. President Barack Obama warned apocalyptically, Just one nuclear weapon exploded in a city-be it New York or Moscow, Tokyo or Beijing, London or Paris-could kill hundreds of thousands of people.And it would badly desabilize our security, our economies, and our very way of life.Obama has put nuclear disarmament back on the table in a way it hasn't been for decades by vowing to pursue a nuclear-free world, and, with a handful of big treaty negotiations in the works, he seems to think 2010 has become a critical year. |
