Bloodless Coup

"The Stans" Commit to Being Nuclear-Weapons-Free

Woo-hoo! Some good news in the world of IR, if, like me, you consider the proliferation of nuclear weapons to be a grave threat to national security. The five Stans have agreed to making their countries a nuclear-weapons-free zone. I think that's a good thing - especially when you consider that these states border Iran, Russia, China, and Afghanistan.
