Includes Foreword Topical List of Documents List of Abbreviations Documents Bibliography List of Persons List of Documents and Index. Includes Documents on Communist China Eighteen Nation Disarmament Committee Federal Republic of Germany France Latin America North Atlantic Treaty Organization Soviet Union United Nations United States and Warsaw Pact Organization. The Documents on Disarmament volumes issued annually since 1960 contain basic documents on disarmament arms control and related matters. International negotiations and the activities of the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency during 1965 are described in the annual report of the Agency which is printed at the end of the documents. Disarmament is the act of reducing limiting or abolishing weapons. Disarmament generally refers to a country's military or specific type of weaponry. Disarmament is often taken to mean total elimination of weapons of mass destruction such as nuclear arms. General and Complete Disarmament was defined by the United Nations General Assembly as the elimination of all WMD coupled with the "balanced reduction of armed forces and conventional armaments based on the principle of undiminished security of the parties with a view to promoting or enhancing stability at a lower military level taking into account the need of all States to protect their security." The U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency ACDA was an independent agency of the United States government that existed from 1961 to 1999. Its mission was to strengthen United States national security by "formulating advocating negotiating implementing and verifying effective arms control nonproliferation and disarmament policies strategies and agreements." In so doing ACDA ensured that arms control was fully integrated into the development and conduct of United States national security policy. ACDA also conducted supported and coordinated research for arms control and disarmament policy formulation prepared for and managed U.S. participation in international arms control and disarmament negotiations and prepared operated and directed U.S. participation in international arms control and disarmament systems. In the 1970s emphasis of the agency was placed upon gaining an understanding of the strategic weapons capabilities of the Soviet Union and People's Republic of China. The electronic reconnaissance capability of the United States was expanded through federal agency research and private contract research utilizing radio frequency as well as optical technologies. The theory of this mission was that a clearer understanding of other nations' strategic capabilities was an important initial step in prevention of nuclear war. In 1997 the Clinton administration announced the partial integration of ACDA with the State Department as part of the reinvention of the agencies which implement the nation's foreign policy. The ACDA Director served as both the Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security Affairs and a Senior Adviser to the President and the Secretary of State for Arms Control Nonproliferation and Disarmament. He communicated with the President through the Secretary of State. In his capacity as senior advisor to the president the Under Secretary attended and participated at the direction of the president in National Security Council NSC and subordinate meetings pertaining to arms control nonproliferation and disarmament and had the right to communicate through the Secretary of State with the President and members of the NSC on arms control nonproliferation and disarmament concerns. As of April 1 1999 ACDA was abolished and its functions merged into the Department of State. This was done pursuant to Pub.L. 105-277 112 Stat. 2681 enacted October 21 1998.4 In particular ACDA's four Bureaus were merged with the Bureau of Political-Military Affairs to form three new Bureaus: Political-Military Affairs Bureau of Arms Control and Bureau of Nonproliferation. The functions of the ACDA Director were replaced by the office of the Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security Affairs and by the office of the Senior Advisor to the President and the Secretary of State for Arms Control Nonproliferation and Disarmament.
