ACA released a new report proposing a new series of high-level disarmament summits to inject new energy and momentum into global efforts to eliminate nuclear weapons.
Modeled after the highly successful nuclear security summits, a series of disarmament summits could bypass some of the structural and political factors that have slowed progress.
Presenter: Kelsey Davenport, ACA Director for Nonproliferation Policy and principal author of the report.
Discussants: Scott Roecker, Vice President for Nuclear Materials Security at the Nuclear Threat Initiative, and former director of the Office of Nuclear Material Removal at the National Nuclear Security Administration, and former director for Nuclear Threat Reduction at the National Security Council.
Ulrich Kuhn, Head of the Arms Control and Emerging Technologies Program, Institute for Peace Research and Security Policy at the University of Hamburg
Moderator: Daryl G. Kimball, Executive Director, Arms Control Association
