Arms Reduction
Arms reduction refers to the process of decreasing the number of weapons, particularly nuclear arms, in a country’s military arsenal. This effort aims to enhance global security and reduce the risk of conflict by limiting the availability of dangerous weapons. Arms reduction agreements often involve negotiations between nations to ensure mutual trust and verification.
International treaties, such as the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), play a crucial role in arms reduction. These agreements set specific limits on the number of deployed nuclear warheads and delivery systems, promoting transparency and cooperation among nations.
