ABSTRACT

This study examines the law relating to denuclearization under international law. A cross-sectional mixed explanatory and interpretative research design was adopted, where the researcher focused on exploring the legal provisions relating to Denuclearization under International law, and the same time analyzing the same, to ascertain their efficacy in achieving complete Denuclearization. Upon analysis of the different laws relating to denuclearization under International law, it was concluded that, there exists a strong legal framework for further reductions in nuclear arsenals with evolving inspection, monitoring and confidence building measures. It was recommended inter alia that there is need for the International community to restore credibility between itself and the Nuclear-Weapon States by focusing on the relief of mutual concerns and distrust, as well as providing new hope to the deadlocked Denuclearization negotiations if any. In so doing, both sides need to recommit to their promises and to implement these in a proper and timely manner, so as to set the Denuclearization process in motion.
