Obama makes nuclear bid before G20 talks


From
September 24, 2009

President Obama will launch an ambitious bid for global nuclear disarmament at the UN today before world leaders head to Pittsburgh for further discussions at the G20.

Mr Obama will become the first US president to chair a United Nations Security Council meeting as he tries to reinvigorate the stagnant nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Part of the plan appears to be setting out a strategy to deal with states which leave or violate the pact.
