Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR)

The Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) is an international agreement established in 1987 to prevent the spread of missile technology that could be used for carrying weapons of mass destruction. It involves countries working together to share information and strengthen export controls on missile-related materials and technology. The MTCR aims to limit the proliferation of missiles capable of delivering nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons, ensuring global security and stability. Participating countries commit to monitoring and restricting missile exports to prevent dangerous technology from falling into the wrong hands.
