The event aimed to facilitate dialogue and explore key issues regarding nuclear proliferation developments in the region, including the ME WMDFZ, and how those issues and developments may feature in the 2020 NPT RevCon.
This report provides a summary of the discussion, key findings and insights on efforts to establish a ME WMDFZ to date, as well as the relationship between the zone and the upcoming NPT RevCon.
