Today, Vice President Joe Biden gave a speech to the National Defense University titled “The Path to Nuclear Security: Implementing the President’s Prague Agenda.” Biden is, of course, referring to President Obama’s April 2009 speech in Prague in which he promised to “seek the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons.”
Biden had plenty to say about non-proliferation and preventing terrorists from acquiring nuclear material or nuclear weapons. Those things are certainly important, and I applaud the administration for taking a strong stance on the issues, but it’s not enough to get us to a world without nuclear weapons.
