International Commission on Nuclear Non-proliferation and Disarmament
The International Commission on Nuclear Non-proliferation and Disarmament has launched a new report which sets out a plan for world leaders to reduce nuclear weapons and stop their spread to rogue states or terrorists.
Released jointly on 15 December by the Japanese Prime Minister, Yukio Hatoyama, and the Australian Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, the report was prepared over 18 months by the International Commission on Nuclear Non-proliferation and Disarmament (ICNND), co-chaired by former Australian Foreign Minister, Gareth Evans, and former Japanese Foreign Minister, (Mme) Yoriko Kawaguchi.
