The Guardian : The UK’s nuclear stockpile could be reduced after multilateral talks next year that are likely to flow from a global summit on nuclear weapons, says Prime Minister Gordon Brown.The summit, to be convened by US president Barack Obama, is expected to come up with a new regime to prevent nuclear proliferation and ensure the safe storage of nuclear stockpiles. It is likely to involve up to 30 countries, providing an opportunity for discussion on a more intrusive weapons inspection regime and a chance for nuclear weapons states other than Russia and the US, which between them account for 95% of nuclear weapons, to contribute to the disarmament process.
