Foreword by Rose Gottemoeller. Includes an chapter by Linton Brooks! This book is the result of a conference held in November 2000 at the Airlie House Conference Center in Warrenton, Virginia. This report provides basic information about U.S. and Russian nonstrategic nuclear weapons. It begins with a brief discussion of how these weapons have appeared in public debates in the past few decades, then summarizes the differences between strategic and nonstrategic nuclear weapons. It then provides some historical background, describing the numbers and types of nonstrategic nuclear weapons deployed by both nations during the Cold War and in the past decade; the policies that guided the deployment and prospective use of these weapons; and the measures that the two sides have taken to reduce and contain their forces. The report reviews the issues that have been raised with regard to U.S. and Russian nonstrategic nuclear weapons, and summarizes a number of policy options that might be explored by Congress, the United States, Russia, and other nations to address these issues.

In this latter capacity, he was responsible for final preparation of the START I Treaty, signed by Presidents Bush and Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev in Moscow on July 31, 1991. In December 1992, he performed a similar function during the final preparation of the January 3, 1993, START II Treaty.

She previously served as Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security at the U.S. State Department. As Rose Gottemoeller wrote in the Foreword, The value of this book is that it goes well beyond stock answers to the policy challenge of non-strategic nuclear weapons to wrestle with some important questions: How do strategic and non-strategic weapons relate? Is there military value to them? Can obstacles to traditional arms control measures be overcome? What new and practical steps should we try, if we choose not to relay on traditional arms control? What is the Russian debate over these weapons, and how dies it relate to China's perspective.…

Missile defense is a system, weapon, or technology involved in the detection, tracking, interception, and destruction of attacking missiles. Originally conceived as a defence against nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), its application has broadened to include shorter-ranged non-nuclear tactical and theater missiles. The United States, Russia, China, India, Israel, and France have all developed such air defense systems. In the United States, missile defense was originally the responsibility of the U.S. Army. The U.S. Missile Defense Agency has developed maritime systems and command and control that will eventually be transferred to the Navy and Air Force for operation and sustainment. James J.
