Peaceful uses of nuclear energy
Working paper submitted by the
Russian Federation
1. The States Parties note that the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation
of Nuclear Weapons is the basis for the constantly expanding international
cooperation in the peaceful uses of nuclear energy.
2. The States Parties consider that nuclear power can ensure stable,
environmentally safe, economically advantageous development and
progress in all areas of human activity in the twenty-first century.
3. The States Parties believe that issues of the safety of nuclear
power need to be resolved, in the first place, at the technological
level, and call for efforts to be coordinated under the auspices
of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for the joint formulation
of long-term nuclear technologies which to a maximum degree meet
the objectives of non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, ensuring
nuclear safety, and resolving the problem of the treatment of radioactive
wastes.
4. The States Parties propose that, under the auspices of IAEA,
an international plan for the establishment of long-term nuclear
technologies should be formulated which would ensure the safe supply
of energy and, at the technological level, prevent the proliferation
of nuclear weapons.
