Comrades In Arms...Control; The Contractor's Role in Implementing On Site Inspections

Abstract

On-site inspection has proven itself a vital part of the Arms Control regimen. For nearly 10 years, a government/contractor team has performed inspections under the intermediate-range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, and since 1995 also under the Strategic Arms Reduction (START) Treaty at a remote site in Russia. The unique strengths of such a team, as well as its associated shortcomings, are worth examining as the US begins implementation of the Chemical Weapons Convention, and moves toward implementation of START II, and perhaps a START III Treaty.
