Nuclear Arms Control
Nuclear arms control refers to international efforts to limit the development, testing, and deployment of nuclear weapons. These agreements aim to reduce the risk of nuclear conflict and promote global security. Key treaties include the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), which involve negotiations between nuclear-armed states.
The goal of nuclear arms control is to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and encourage disarmament. By establishing verification measures and promoting transparency, these agreements help build trust among nations. Effective arms control can contribute to a safer world by reducing the likelihood of nuclear war.
