Describe the U.S. role in the global proliferation of nuclear and nonnuclear weapons. Why is U.S. credibility on issues of weapons proliferation challenged by the international community?
What will be an ideal response?
Answers should identify how the United States, as a nuclear power, supports multilateral efforts to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and the enforcement of the 1968 Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT). Answers may also address U.S.–Russian negotiations over the reduction of nuclear stockpiles. Answers should also detail U.S. support for chemical and biological weapons agreements, despite its history of using these weapons and/or supplying them to other states. Other issues that challenge U.S. efforts include its leading role in the global arms industry, small arms sales which often land on the black market, and its attempts to weaponize space.
