Thanks to the framework provided by the #NPT, the peaceful uses of nuclear energy, science, and technology can help meet critical development challenges and achieve the #SDGs. See the video below to learn more about the Sustained Dialogue and how it is contributing to this important work.

Today, @StateISN’s Christine Martin delivered the 🇺🇸Cluster 3 statement to the #NPT #PrepCom, highlighting global efforts to advance the peaceful uses of nuclear energy, science, and technology to achieve Agenda 2030 and the UN #SDGs. Read it here: state.gov/statement-to-clust…

At the #PrepCom, I raised ongoing proliferation challenges that we must address together. Iran must meet its nuclear safeguards obligations, and the DPRK must return to and fully comply with the NPT and IAEA safeguards. Separately, I reiterated our commitment to nuclear weapon free zones where they exist and a zone free of WMD in the Middle East based on arrangements freely arrived at by all the regional states.

Here at the #NPT #PrepCom, the U.S. looks forward to building on proposals from last year’s working group on improving the #NPT review process, including its proposal for interactive discussion of national reports. Read our working paper with ideas on how to do so here: state.gov/wp-content/uploads…

I was pleased to speak at NPDI’s #PrepCom side event today on transparency, accountability, and strengthening the #NPT review process. The United States is deeply committed to advancing these goals, and we believe there is cross-regional support to do so. Let’s get it done.

Thank you to @USAmbCD for hosting a fantastic celebration in honor of the #PrepCom. It was a great opportunity to meet with other delegations and discuss our common dedication to the #NPT and how, together, we can advance nuclear disarmament, nonproliferation, and peaceful uses.

Today, the U.S. delivered a statement discussing the nonproliferation pillar’s central role in the NPT. While we have worked very hard to stem the proliferation of nuclear weapons and materials, we still face many challenges. Read more here: state.gov/statement-to-clust…
