Regional Tools to Strengthen Nuclear Security: Asia-Pacific

| November 2019

This paper surveys the existing tools for maintaining and strengthening nuclear security in the Asia-Pacific region, identifies regional tools that currently do not play such a role, but conceivably could, and considers whether new tools might be created. Asia-Pacific is defined as encompassing North Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the South Pacific. It stretches from Russia in the north to New Zealand in the south, and from Pakistan in the west to the small island states of the South Pacific in the east.
