  • Experts Statement on U.S. Priorities for Reducing the Risk of Nuclear Terrorism
    Experts Statement on U.S. Priorities for Reducing the Risk of Nuclear Terrorism The undersigned experts, with decades of experience reducing nuclear risk, urge the Biden administration to quickly restore U.S. leadership in strengthening global nuclear security. President Biden knows this issue well. In 2004, as we were still recovering from the September 11th attacks, then-Senator Joe Biden said, “If we are to avoid nuclear terrorism in the future, there is no more critical effort today than securing the world’s fissile materials.” Threats have changed since those harrowing days, but the importance of this effort has not. An act of nuclear terrorism anywhere would be a global humanitarian, economic, and political catastrophe and could cripple nuclear technology’s contributions to energy, medical, industrial, and other purposes. The international community can reduce the danger by effectively protecting the hundreds of nuclear facilities and transport operations around the world. This is a rare national issue where there is bipartisan consensus. For 25 years, every president made reducing the threat of nuclear terrorism a top priority. With the end of the nuclear security summits and limited high-level attention during the Trump administration, however, U.S. leadership on this issue has weakened and international progress has slowed. Some nuclear security systems remain inadequate, and such systems must keep up with dynamic threats, such as drones or cyber- attacks. Nuclear material and facilities remain vulnerable around the world. The following critical steps can reinvigorate U.S. security efforts: President Biden should launch a comprehensive, whole-of-government plan to achieve effective and sustainable nuclear security for the world’s stocks of nuclear weapons, highly enriched uranium, separated plutonium, and nuclear facilities whose sabotage could cause a major catastrophe.
