Two CISAC arms control experts join call for nations to strengthen Non-Proliferation Treaty

CISAC's William Perry and George Bunn joined 21 other nonproliferation experts in a public statement that calls upon all governments to strengthen the Non-Proliferation Treaty during the pact's review conference this May. Along with former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, and others from around the world, Perry and Bunn urged nations to "recommit themselves to the legal and political obligations established by the treaty" and to "agree on a specific and balanced program of action to strengthen treaty implementation and compliance."
