Studium Generale | Lecture

In 2009 President Obama called nuclear terrorism one of the greatest threats to international security.

On March 24 and 25 the Netherlands will host the world's third Nuclear Security Summit (NSS). Some 60 government leaders (including Obama) and representatives from international organizations will come to The Hague to discuss measures for improving global nuclear security and preventing nuclear terrorism.
