The United States is accelerating efforts to dismantle its nuclear weapons while bringing the overall U.S. nuclear stockpile down dramatically. It will also continue to play a leading role in reducing the threat of nuclear terrorism around the world.

NNSA officials have briefed different U.N.-sponsored bodies on the United States record of compliance with the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty and other U.S. efforts to advance nonproliferation.  These efforts include a 50 percent reduction in the U.S. nuclear arsenal since 2001, dismantling greater numbers of nuclear weapons, NNSA's plans to shrink the nuclear weapons complex, and cooperation with over 100 nations in nuclear nonproliferation and threat reduction work.
