About This Quote
Arms control is by definition a rejection of disarmament. Arms control advocates try to link their work to disarmament efforts, even though the two are completely separate. The disarmament process involves negotiation between countries, while arms control involves international agreements about which countries can have nuclear weapons and how many they can hold. Arms control has nothing whatsoever to do with the elimination of nuclear weapons or their elimination from national arsenals.
