Nuclear proliferation policy

Nuclear proliferation policy refers to strategies and international agreements aimed at preventing the spread of nuclear weapons and related technology. It seeks to promote global security by discouraging countries from developing or acquiring nuclear arms, often through treaties like the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). These policies involve diplomatic efforts, verification measures, and sanctions to ensure compliance. The goal is to reduce the risk of nuclear conflict, encourage peaceful use of nuclear energy, and promote stability by controlling how nuclear materials and knowledge are distributed worldwide.
