MECHANISMS FOR THE DISARMAMENT OF THE UNITED NATIONS NECESSARY TO ENSURE PEACE ANDGLOBAL SECURITY ARE SEIZED: NO STUDIES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED; THERE ARE NO PLANS OFACTION OR PROSPECTS FOR LAUNCHING NEGOTIATIONS ON THE KEY ISSUES CONCERNING NUCLEARNON-PROLIFERATION AND STRATEGIC PERSPECTIVE ON DISARMAMENT.THE 2010 NPT REVIEW CONFERENCE SETS 64 GOALS COMBINED IN AN ACTION PLAN FOR ALLSIGNATORIES’ STATES TO THE AGREEMENT; THE 2015 CONFERENCE NOTES THAT NO SIGNIFICANTPROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE IN THEIR IMPLEMENTATION.THE 2015 REVCON ACHIEVEMENTS ARE ASSESSED AS INSUFFICIENT; ONLY THE INITIATIVE FOCUSEDON THE HUMANITARIAN IMPACT OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ACHIEVEMENT NOTCOVERING THE LACK OF PROGRESS IN IMPLEMENTING THE ACTION PLAN 2010.THE DIALOGUE IN "P-5 PROCESS" FORMAT IS NOT TRANSLATED INTO CONCRETE STEPS TOWARDSNUCLEAR DISARMAMENT, IN THE CONCRETE COMMITMENTS RELATED TO REGIONAL AND GLOBALSTABILITY REGARDING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR NUCLEAR AND CONVENTIONAL WEAPONSSYSTEMS.APPLYING THE PRINCIPLE OF TRANSPARENCY BY THE P-5 IS FAR FROM NNWS EXPECTATION, AND THENGOS, A SITUATION UNDERLINED AND PRESSED IN REVCON 2015. IN TURN, NWS CONSIDERS THATGREATER TRANSPARENCY WOULD JEOPARDIZE SAFETY AND PROTECTION OF NUCLEAR MATERIALSAND WARHEADS AND THE CREDIBILITY CAPACITY TO DISCOURAGE NWS.THE FORMAT OF “P-5 PROCESS” COULD BE IMPROVED BY DEVELOPING ITS “P-5 + 2 PROCESS” BYINVITING INDIA AND PAKISTAN TO PARTICIPATE IN STRATEGIC STABILITY.
