Summary
This document appears to be page 14 of a book, manuscript, or extensive policy paper regarding nuclear non-proliferation, marked as evidence with a House Oversight stamp. The text argues against the concept of 'global zero' (total disarmament), suggesting instead that US policy should focus on the 'character of the regimes' (like Iran and North Korea) rather than the weapons themselves. It recounts a conversation with an unnamed prime minister who admitted they would cheat on disarmament treaties.
