Arms Control in the Middle East
This issue of Disarmament Forum explores
options for a new arms control dialogue in the Middle East. Authors
analyse the current security dilemma facing the region, including
the nuclear question—while some states are advocating the
creation of a zone free of weapons of mass destruction throughout
the Middle East, others seem intent on nuclearization. Would, for
example, a regional approach to the nuclear fuel cycle lessen non-proliferation
fears while permitting greater reliance on nuclear energy? Also
in this issue, lessons are drawn from the last official dialogue
on arms control—the Arms Control and Regional Security Working
Group, which stalled in 1995, and ongoing diplomatic efforts in
the region are examined, with a view to potential future arms control
activities.
