Turkey joins European leadership network for nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation

Turkey is ready to join the European Leadership Network for Multilateral Nuclear Disarmament and Non-Proliferation, a network of senior European political, military and diplomatic figures working on nuclear proliferation issues, according to Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Politicians who work to build public opinion and lobby for disarmament invited Turkey to join the network, spearheaded by British legislators. Ruling Justice and Development Party (AK Party) Deputy Vahit Erdem represented Turkey at a meeting of the network in London last June.
