Summary/Abstract |
The US-India deal on civil nuclear cooperation, in spite of the Indian non-proliferation commitment, has potential adverse impacts on global non-proliferation undermining the basic bargain behind the NPT. In order to overcome such adverse impacts the author proposes to move towards a "universal nuclear disarmament" under which every nuclear weapon holder will be asked to make contributions towards nuclear disarmament. The US, for example, will be asked to ratify CTBT, negotiate a successor to the START I Treaty and engage in strategic dialogues with Russia and China.
The author proposes to apply a proportionate reduction of nuclear warheads weighted according to the size of each arsenal. This way, while the US and Russia will be asked to drastically reduce their arsenals, the other holders will also be asked to start reducing their warheads even in a symbolic manner of by just a few bombs each.

Summary/Abstract |
The African Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone Treaty, commonly known as the Treaty of Pelindaba,
declares that the "African nuclear-weapon-free zone will constitute an important step towards
strengthening the non-proliferation regime, promoting cooperation in the peaceful uses of
nuclear energy, promoting general and complete disarmament and enhancing regional
and international peace and security".1
This article provides a brief historical background to
the treaty and an update of developments in its implementation since its entry into force,
including the First Conference of State Parties, in November 2010.
