THE FORGOTTEN NUCLEAR NONPROLIFERATION CHALLENGE? EFFORTS AND THE FORMER SOVIET UNIONl
Abstract
Headline-grabbing international crises understandably tend
to gain public attention. Conflicts in Bosnia and Kosovo, Sierra
Leone and East Timor, and now Chechnya are hcId in the spotlight
of international news and are quickly relegated to the background
when theyare resolved or have gone on for too long to be
newsworthy. Likewise the open testing of nuclear warheads by
India and Pakistan initiaIIy garnered much international discussion,
and some sanctions. Since then the matter appears to have been put
to rest and forgotten by the public, and has been only barely
mentioned in the context of the reeent turmoil and military coup in
Pakistan.
