An ultimate goal of the United States is a world which is free from the scourge of war and the dangers and burdens of armaments; in which the use of force has been subordinated to the rule of law; and in which international adjustments to a changing world are achieved peacefully. It is the purpose of this chapter to provide impetus toward this goal by addressing the problem of reduction and control of armaments looking toward ultimate world disarmament.

TITLE 22—FOREIGN RELATIONS AND INTERCOURSE
§ 5902

‘‘(5) The current international era of cooperation
provides greater opportunities for achieving world-
wide reduction and control of nuclear weapons and
material than any time since the emergence of nu-
clear weapons 50 years ago.
‘‘(6) It is in the security interests of both the
United States and the world community for the
President and the Congress to begin the process of re-
ducing the number of nuclear weapons in every coun-
try through multilateral agreements and other ap-
propriate means.
‘‘(7) In a 1991 study, a committee of the National
Academy of Sciences concluded that: ‘The appro-
priate new levels of nuclear weapons cannot be speci-
fied at this time, but it seems reasonable to the com-
mittee that U.S. strategic forces could in time be re-
duced to 1,000–2,000 nuclear warheads, provided that
such a multilateral agreement included appropriate
levels and verification measures for the other nations
that possess nuclear weapons. This step would require
successful implementation of our proposed post-
START U.S.-Soviet reductions, related confidence-
building measures in all the countries involved, and
multilateral security cooperation in areas such as
conventional force deployments and planning.’.
