Bush urges protection for nuclear treaty

by Staff Writers
Washington (AFP) July 1, 2008
President George W. Bush on Tuesday urged the international community not to allow some countries to undermine the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), as it marked its 40th anniversary.

"NPT parties must take strong action to confront noncompliance with the treaty in order to preserve and strengthen its nonproliferation undertakings," Bush said in a statement as the world weighs potential North Korean and Iranian nuclear threats.

Bush did not mention those countries by name but said "we cannot allow nations to violate their commitments and undermine the NPT's fundamental role in advancing international security."
