Lugar hails a deal on inspections as key to helping keep Moscow's nuclear weapons out of terrorists' reach. By David Holley, Times Staff Writer MOSCOW — Joint U.S.-Russian efforts to boost security against potential terrorist attacks on Russian storage sites for nuclear warheads have accelerated in recent months, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said here Friday. Sen. Richard G. Lugar (R-Ind.) credited the stepped-up pace of activity to a new commitment by Russian President Vladimir V. Putin after a February summit with President Bush in Bratislava, Slovakia. "We've had an agreement for inspections at the warhead storage sites that has broken the logjam of misunderstanding there," Lugar said at a news conference. "This is an important breakthrough." Under the 1991 Nunn-Lugar Act, which established the Cooperative Threat Reduction program, the United States has spent billions of dollars to help dismantle nuclear warheads, ballistic missiles, bombers, submarines and other weapons in former Soviet states. But joint efforts to prevent terrorists from raiding Russian storage facilities and obtaining nuclear weapons largely have faltered. The U.S. sought to monitor how its funds would be used to upgrade security, something Russia had been unwilling to allow, Lugar said at the news conference and in a subsequent interview. In June, however, Russia presented the United States with a list of 25 to 30 nuclear warhead storage sites and said that three U.S. inspections would be allowed at each, Lugar said. "Terrorists have become tougher," Lugar said. "This is a Russian-American response to toughen the targets too. We're not asleep either." Lugar said that until the February summit, "things were … certainly not going very fast in this area." "I think that President Bush and President Putin, taking a look at the war on terror — and this is the point we're making anecdotally about how terrorists sometimes are becoming more proficient in their craft — I think the two presidents recognized we needed to upgrade so we were more proficient in our protection," Lugar said. "The Russians in the past had placed severe limitations upon inspection of the storage sites, so this was an important breakthrough," he added. "The Russians in essence are saying, 'Your privileges to inspect are not unlimited, but at least you have three opportunities.' " Lugar is in Russia with Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) to visit several sites associated with the program. They are scheduled to visit a nuclear warhead storage facility in Saratov, 450 miles south of Moscow, and a site near Perm, about 725 miles east of the Russian capital, where mobile SS-24 and SS-25 intercontinental ballistic missiles that once threatened the United States are being destroyed. On previous visits, Lugar said, he has run into situations where Americans were denied access to U.S.-funded activities. "There might be a commander who is just uncooperative, who wasn't really eager to see Americans around there," Lugar said. "So we had to argue diplomatically that, after all, this was cooperative, we were providing contractors and various other support, so we felt that for the American taxpayers we ought to take a look. This was not always agreed to in the old days or more recent days." Lugar recalled visiting a Russian warhead storage facility about five years ago. "Literally we saw the warheads sort of like coffins, lying side by side, with labels at the top indicating … when the warhead was constructed, what kind of servicing, how long it might have efficacy," he said. Lugar said he believed it was important for the momentum of the program to continue the work, citing as an example U.S. help in construction of a plant in the Siberian town of Shchuchye to destroy chemical weapons. "We believe it's in our best interests to continue to work with the Russians and other countries to fund the Shchuchye project, which I understand will finally be completed in about 2008, because there's still 40,000 metric tons of nerve gas or other dangerous chemical weapons out there that Russia has pledged to destroy but physically found it's unable to do so by itself," he said. On Friday, Lugar and Obama visited a Moscow-area agricultural laboratory where Soviet-era research included finding ways to counter a possible U.S. biological weapons attack. "This is a biological facility dealing with agricultural situations, and there are dangerous pathogens. They're scattered over many rooms, many floors, many buildings," Lugar said. "So the idea, which the Russians fully support and are enthusiastic about, is that we rebuild a certain section or fortify these rooms so they will contain in a fairly small area the pathogens, and thus secure the place." http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-usrussia27aug27,1,2172238.story (Return to Articles and Documents List) Chicago Tribune August 27, 2005 Stay Or Go, Army Store Of Lethal VX Frays Nerves By Tim Jones, Tribune national correspondent NEWPORT, Ind. -- Like the house guest who never leaves, VX nerve agent, one of the last and deadliest vestiges of the Cold War, sits in thick steel storage tubes amid western Indiana's vast green fields of corn and soybeans. Maybe the more than 1,200 tons of dangerous chemical weapons material will be moved out of this pastoral setting, as the Army has been trying to do for years. And maybe it won't. According to analyst George Delgado, who testified this week before the federal Base Closure and Realignment Commission, it could be as late as 2012 before all the VX is destroyed or neutralized. The long-running drama over what to do with the viscous chemical last produced in 1968 faces not only scientific and environmental obstacles but political resistance in New Jersey, where officials have vowed to block any plans to truck a watery, neutralized form of the nerve agent to their state for disposal in the Delaware River. Even if officials here figure out how to safely neutralize the chemical, there are no guarantees the material will leave Indiana. "I'm probably not going to see that stuff moved out of here, not in my lifetime," predicted Tim Wilson, the 48-year- old president of the Vermillion County Board of Commissioners who has monitored the Army's efforts to destroy the nerve agent. "I think they're going to have a hard time transporting it out," Wilson said. Practically nothing about the planned disposal of the VX nerve agent, stored about 30 miles north of Terre Haute near the village of Newport, has been easy. The chemical stockpiled at the 8,000-acre Newport Chemical Agent Disposal Facility was supposed to be gone years ago, as dictated by a 1990 disarmament agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union. But since then there have been huge fights over how to safely dispose of the cooking oil-type material. Incineration was proposed and later dropped because of environmental concerns. Disposal plan VX, which the Army began producing in 1961, was designed for launch on rockets or to drop on large numbers of troops.

  • Wanting, Not Waiting
    WINNERSdateline OF THE OVERSEAS PRESS CLUB AWARDS 2011 Wanting, Not Waiting 2012 Another Year of Uprisings SPECIAL EDITION dateline 2012 1 letter from the president ne year ago, at our last OPC Awards gala, paying tribute to two of our most courageous fallen heroes, I hardly imagined that I would be standing in the same position again with the identical burden. While last year, we faced the sad task of recognizing the lives and careers of two Oincomparable photographers, Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros, this year our attention turns to two writers — The New York Times’ Anthony Shadid and Marie Colvin of The Sunday Times of London. While our focus then was on the horrors of Gadhafi’s Libya, it is now the Syria of Bashar al- Assad. All four of these giants of our profession gave their lives in the service of an ideal and a mission that we consider so vital to our way of life — a full, complete and objective understanding of a world that is so all too often contemptuous or ignorant of these values. Theirs are the same talents and accomplishments to which we pay tribute in each of our awards tonight — and that the Overseas Press Club represents every day throughout the year. For our mission, like theirs, does not stop as we file from this room. The OPC has moved resolutely into the digital age but our winners and their skills remain grounded in the most fundamental tenets expressed through words and pictures — unwavering objectivity, unceasing curiosity, vivid story- telling, thought-provoking commentary.

  • The Garment Industry in Bangladesh: a Human Rights Challenge
    Journal of Business & Economic Policy Vol. 2, No. 4; December 2015 The Garment Industry in Bangladesh: A Human Rights Challenge Peter Stanwick Auburn University Department of Management Sarah Stanwick Auburn University School of Accountancy Abstract The purpose of this paper is to present a case study of the working conditions in the garment industry in Bangladesh. This case study describes past and current unsafe working conditions in the garment industry from the perspective of violations of human rights. Factors that are discussed in the case study include: the high incidence of injuries on the job by the workers, the very low wage rate of the workers, the lack of payment of wages to the workers, the use of gender discrimination, air quality issues in the factories, the lack of safety features in the factories, and the response of the garment industry to external stakeholders. Keywords: Human Rights; Bangladesh; Garment Industry. The Industry Bangladesh boasts some of the highest population density in the world with more than 164 million people living in the country. Of those 164 million, approximately 4.0 million people were employed in the garment industry in 2010 (ACCORD, 2015). In a country where poverty and overpopulation abound, the garment industry faces many human rights challenges. Due to favorable trade policies implemented by the government of Bangladesh in the early 1980s, textile manufacturing has skyrocketed in the country. When these policies were first introduced, there were approximately 50 textile factories were manufacturing garments and employing a few thousand workers. By 2000, there were over 3,000 factories which employed 1.8 million workers and generated total exports of over $6.4 billion US.

Weinstein* INTRODUCTION Over the years, associating with scores of law clerks and thousands of students, lawyers, and judges, I have been amazed and humbled in observing the altruistic devotion to human welfare that exudes from the hearts of so many as they enter the legal profes- sion. Our duty of public service, particularly to the less privileged, is based on more than personal satisfaction. The protected status and virtual monopoly of lawyers as actors within the adjudicatory system comes with an implied promise to work for the public good. In a larger sense, this obligation is founded upon the recogni- tion that each of us stands on the shoulders of 10,000 generations. While, of course, personal achievement should be recognized, it was the fool of ancient times who is quoted in Deuteronomy as saying that in his heart, "[m]y power and the might of my hand hath gotten me this wealth."' What we have done, we have done because of all that was done by others before us.
