Non-Proliferation Treaty ‘struggling’ in new nuclear age, expert warns

By Xander Elliards

A CRUCIAL international treaty seen as the cornerstone of nuclear relations is “really struggling” in the modern age as nuclear-armed states fail to meet their obligations under it, an expert has warned.

Speaking to The National from a UN summit on the Treaty on the Prohibition
of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW), the University of Glasgow’s Dr Rhys Crilley
said there was “a lot of frustration internationally” with
nuclear-armed states like the UK failing to live up to their commitments
under the older Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
