Third follow-up: Moving beyond the stalemate: addressing the nuclear challenge by supranational means
October 22, 2008. In CIEP Briefing Paper Number 3, published in August 2005, Ruud Lubbers argued that the problems surrounding nuclear weapons proliferation needed to be addressed by the IAEA, upgraded to a supranational organisation, with the accompanying competences, to oversee the nuclear sectors in the world.
In this third follow up Ruud Lubbers reviews recent developments, providing an overview of recent developments including the 20/20 Vision for the Future of Director General Mohamed ElBaradei and the subsequent Report of the Commission of Eminent Persons. The article continues by mapping-out how a "re-enforced global nuclear order" could be achieved by strengthening the IAEA’s role and upgrading it to a supranational organization.
