SUMMARY:Ninth EU Non-Proliferation and Disarmament Consultative Meeting – virtual event
DESCRIPTION:10 September 2020 – 11 September 2020\nThe 9th consultative meeting of the EU Consortium on Non-Proliferation and Disarmament was held on 10 and 11 September 2020 in remote format. It was an opportunity to welcome the new Special Envoy on Disarmament and Non-proliferation and Head of the EEAS Disarmament Non-proliferation and Arms Export Control Division\, Ambassador Marjolijn van Deelen\, who focused her presentation on the challenge of multilateralism in arms control. \nThis year\, our consultative meeting also addressed in particular Arms control\, non-proliferation and disarmament challenges in the context of the global health crisis; the challenges facing the EU in the run-up to the 10th NPT Review Conference to be held in 2021; Artificial Intelligence in weapon systems\, the norm of non-use of chemical and biological weapons\, key developments in the global and European arms trade\, and attempted to elaborate a long-term view on non-proliferation and export control regimes. \nDespite the format constrained by sanitary conditions\, the meeting allowed more than 80 European participants representing States\, the EU\, and research centres of our Consortium network to discuss the thorny questions that the particularly tense strategic environment poses in terms of arms control and international security. \nYear after year\, changes in the technological context in which new weapons systems are emerging are increasingly at the heart of the reflections of our group\, with the aim of placing European action at the forefront of the new challenges facing arms control\, non-proliferation and disarmament. \nNoteworthy this year: for many participants\, the global sanitary crisis will probably have contributed to increasing the polarization in arms control and disarmament. \n \n10 September 2020\n15:15 – 15:30\nWelcome and introduction to the meeting\nAmb.
