## About this book

Strengthening Long-Term Nuclear Security: Protecting Weapon-Usable Material in Russia, Volume 1, is a detailed political science study on the management of nuclear assets. This report examines the transition from U.S.-Russian cooperative efforts to a Russian-directed program designed to secure 600 tons of weapon-usable nuclear material. It focuses on the necessity of international acceptability and the critical role of modern material protection, control, and accounting systems.

The text analyzes the political commitment required from the Russian Government to maintain these security frameworks. It suggests the creation of a ten-year indigenization fund, supported by Russia and G-8 partners, to shift financial responsibilities for technical security systems to Russian authorities. This volume provides a professional analysis of the resources and management strategies needed to prevent the leakage of plutonium and highly enriched uranium.
