Towards this end, Brunei Darussalam has become a party to the following international treaties and agreements aimed at curbing the proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)

As the cornerstone of the global non proliferation regime, the Treaty had helped to slow, and at times reverse the spread of military nuclear capability, but had not been able to prevent it completely.

The Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons remains the cornerstone of the non proliferation regime.

The Treaty is the first line of defence against the spread of nuclear weapons.

Meltdowns and Fallouts

(c) Non proliferation

The Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons is a seminal instrument in the field of global, multilateral non proliferation.

It is currently impossible to separate the matters of vertical and horizontal proliferation.

That pattern of proliferation represented the gravest threat to the future of the NPT.

However, we cannot come to grips with this danger through the so called Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI), a non transparent and selective mechanism which limits itself to fighting horizontal proliferation, while ignoring vertical proliferation and disarmament.

Thus, it seems that any country is open to the threat of use of nuclear weapons if it is considered to pose a proliferation risk nuclear, chemical or biological.

The NPT was crucial to efforts to halt the vertical and horizontal proliferation of nuclear weapons.

Given the new security threats, it is imperative to strengthen the non proliferation dimension of the Treaty.

But, of course, the NPT itself remains the cornerstone of the international community apos s non proliferation efforts.

Austria regards the Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) as the cornerstone of the global non proliferation regime and the essential foundation for the pursuit of nuclear disarmament.

The credibility of the non proliferation regime in the Middle East depended on Israel's accession to NPT.

Sustaining the NPT

Nor does it emphasize the need to universalize the Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) or put an end to such proliferation in all its aspects.

That having been said, nuclear disarmament and non proliferation are two inseparable dimensions of the NPT.

The concern about proliferation outside the Treaty is legitimate.

NPT parties that violate the Treaty's nonproliferation undertakings must be held accountable.

For the Union, the Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons remains the cornerstone of the global non proliferation regime.

The fight against proliferators should be consolidated it is important that the goals and principles of the initiative are supported by as many countries as possible, thereby reducing the proliferators' options for attaining their objectives.

Complacency with proliferation outside the NPT is inconsistent with efforts to strengthen the Treaty's regime and may defeat the purpose of eliminating nuclear weapons.

That is another setback for the cause of disarmament and non proliferation after the failure of last May's Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).

The consensus underlying the Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) is badly frayed.

At that time the United States had been suggesting non proliferation now, the United States is saying non proliferation in all its aspects .

Universal accession to the Treaty was the sole means of enhancing the credibility of the non proliferation regime.

The current intense international concern about weapons of mass destruction proliferation, including potentially to non State groups, has added to the importance of the nuclear non proliferation regime based on the Treaty.
