Not that I am a collector, but I don’t recall seeing this view.

In September, DAS Richard Verma discussed the 123 agreement:

It was President Clinton who – once and for all delinked U.S.-India and U.S. – Pakistan policy.

Indo-Pak would be set aside in favor of a robust set of policy initiatives that, as I noted, were not only significant but they were creative, too.

There was no more creative, and – yes – difficult policy decision than to construct the U.S.-India civil nuclear deal.

This was a landmark initiative to deliver safe and reliable nuclear energy to India, while simultaneously bringing India into the international atomic energy compliance and safety regimes.

It took a bold change in thinking in India, and it took leadership here at home, with President Bush and so many others and then Senator Biden from his perch on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, to lead the efforts in D.C. and capitals around the world.

As has been noted by scholars here at Hudson and in think tanks across D.C. and Delhi, the deal was critical as it showed that our countries were willing to bend with history and take extraordinary steps that would have lasting effects.

For whatever reason, the new DIA report titled Nuclear Challenges contains two slightly-different descriptions of Iran’s nuclear program.

Here’s one:

Currently, Iran almost certainly does not have nuclear weapons and has agreed not to seek, develop, or acquire nuclear weapons.

Here’s another:

While Iran does not have a nuclear weapon, it continues to develop ballistic missile systems to increase their accuracy and lethality.

The Draft Review of the Operation and Status of the Ottawa Convention has a bit about the state of Ukraine’s APL stockpile:

The importance of destroying stockpiled anti-personnel mines as soon as possible following entry into force has been spotlighted by the current unprecedented situation faced by Ukraine, where part of Ukraine’s stockpiled anti-personnel mines are no longer under Ukraine’s effective control and are now in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.

According to Iran, the United States is still buying Iranian heavy water:

…Iran is also among the top producers of high-quality heavy water in the world despite the enemies’ plots to block Tehran’s progress. Tehran says the United States is purchasing Iran’s heavy water for its nuclear reactors through an intermediary.
