Non-Proliferation and Arms Control Project

The issues of non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, arms control and disarmament have been playing  an increasingly important role in the international security studies. The project focuses on the main contemporary challenges: certain states’ ambitions to master the capabilities needed for the production of the WMD, most notably nuclear weapons; security of sensitive materials and technologies; need to strengthen the multilateral conventional weapons control regimes and confidence-building measures; and the effectiveness of the functioning of the international regimes in the field (including the future of the NPT and CFE regimes). The project analyses also the initiatives aimed at reducing the role of nuclear weapons and the size of the arsenals, the related developments in the United States, Russia, France, the United Kingdom, and the evolution of the Atlantic Alliance’s deterrence posture.
