Zero is the Goal

Timothy Garton Ash, The Guardian | November 13, 2008

Obama’s foreign policy challenges are just that, challenges. ++ Complicating matters, there are many; but none have the same potential upside as the challenge of fulfilling his election pledge to "make the goal of eliminating nuclear weapons worldwide a central element of US nuclear policy." ++ There are two steps, each equally daunting: recognized nuclear states must eliminate their nuclear arsenals – “zero is the goal.” ++ Second, an international regime must be established to cover “the production, storage and use of all nuclear fuel.”
