In light of this, we have decided to extend current subscriptions. Details are given elsewhere in this issue. Most recently we postponed publication, because we wanted to be able to announce the place and exact dates for the upcoming 12th Colloquium of the IALS. We are very happy and grateful that our members in Kargil will host the colloquium from July 12 through 15, 2005.

  • CTBTO Youth Group Conference Moscow, Russian Federation
    CTBTOCYG Youth Group Conference Moscow, Russian Federation October 18-20, 2017 The views expressed herein are those of the authors, and do not necessarily refect the views of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO), the Russian Ministry of Defense, or National Research Nuclear University/Moscow Engineering Physics Institute. Likewise, the views expressed by the authors do not necessarily refect the views of the European Union, which has generously sponsored the participation in the conference of several CTBTO Youth Group (CYG) members. The CYG’s aim is to revitalize the discussion around the CTBT among decision-makers, academia, students, expert society and media. By raising awareness of the importance of the nuclear test-ban, the CYG hopes to help develop the next generation’s capacity to address the pressing foreign, defence, and security policy challenges of our time. Foreword The papers contained in this compilation are the result of a CTBTO Youth Group project aimed at enabling knowledge transfer in the field of nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament. Youth Group members from seven of the remaining eight “Annex 2 States” whose ratification is needed for the CTBT to enter into force worked together over a period of three months in the development of the papers. During the same period, Youth Group members from the Russian Federation worked together on a paper sharing their perspective on Article XIV of the Treaty, which relates to entry into force. For the project, Youth Group members from the Annex 2 States: - Conducted research and wrote about the history, demographics, security policies and decision making authorities of an Annex 2 country which was not their own; - Worked on teams consisting of nationals of their own countries as well as nationals of other Annex 2 countries; - Were requested to submit their papers to peers and experts for review and to incorporate the comments provided by reviewers.

At the same time, Modi’s government also abolished Article 35A, which is part of Article 370, and which mandated that only permanent residents of Jammu and Kashmir could own property in the region. Fearing unrest, India deployed tens of thousands of additional troops to the region, and blacked out most communication. Kashmir is among one of the most intractable territorial disputes in international politics. The groundwork for the conflict was laid in
