The Center's work on non-proliferation issues includes tracking U.S. programs and legislation that support efforts to secure and neutralize nuclear weapons and materials around the world. We follow developments in global proliferation "hot spots" such as North Korea, Iran, and South Asia and provide Congress, the media, and other organizations with regular issue briefs, news updates and analysis, and periodic briefings.

US-India Nuclear Deal
The proposed nuclear cooperation deal between India and the US has raised concerns that it could severely weaken the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and unravel the international non-proliferation framework by setting a dangerous precedent for single-country exceptions from the non-proliferation establishment and giving India, which is not a party to the NPT, an increased ability to produce nuclear weapons.
