DIGEST OF THE RUSSIAN NONPROLIFERATION JOURNAL
YADERNY KONTROL (NUCLEAR CONTROL)
The Digest of the Russian Nonproliferation Journal Yaderny Kontrol (Nuclear Control) has been published in English four times a year by the PIR Center since 1996. It contains selected analytical articles from Yaderny Kontrol – a journal published in Russian six times a year. Both the Russian journal and its English digest are both devoted to international security, arms control, and nonproliferation.
The digest, with a circulation of 800 copies, is disseminated among decision makers and experts in 27 countries, including among others the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, China, Japan, India, Pakistan, Israel, Egypt, Mexico, and Brazil. It is also read by the heads of diplomatic missions, political counselors, and military attachйs of all the major embassies in Moscow.
For those experts in international security who work on Russian foreign and defense policy but do not read Russian, Yaderny Kontrol Digest has become the key, and in most cases, the only source of independent and reliable information and professional analysis. There are no comparable publications in Russia and the CIS. It has become Russia’s most authoritative periodic publication on issues of international security and arms control. It publishes exclusive materials, interviews with leading Russian politicians and specialists, and analytical articles by the most prominent experts.
Yaderny Kontrol Digest covers, among others, topics such as nuclear weapons, nuclear strategies, and defense policies; proliferation threats; export controls; nuclear security; chemical weapons; biological weapons; missiles and missile technologies; dual-use technologies; and conventional arms and high-precision weapons.
The Editor-in-Chief is Dr. Vladimir A. Orlov. The Editorial Board is composed of key Russian experts in nonproliferation and nuclear-related issues including Amb. Roland Timerbaev who is currently the PIR Senior Advisor, Col.-Gen. (ret.) Yevgeni Maslin, Lt. Gen. (res.) Vasily Lata, and Dr. Dmitry Evstafiev.
