Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and Global Security
During the Cold War, the rapid expansion of nuclear arsenals transformed military strategy and global diplomacy. The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), opened for signature in 1968, emerged as a central effort to prevent the further spread of nuclear weapons.
