Solution
- Arms Control: Arms control now governs the manufacture and acquisition of weapons; developing countries devote much of their annual expenditures to defense. The scientists advised against rushing to acquire weapons, predicting that if nuclear or biological weapons were ever used, humanity would perish within hours. A number of key disarmament treaties, including the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the Strategic Arms Reduction and Limitation Treaty, and the Anti-Ballistic Missile Systems Treaty, have been signed.
- Confidence Regeneration: Building confidence is a conventional security method for preventing violence. It is a means for nations to communicate with their foes. They speak about their military goals and, to a lesser extent, their military strategies. This demonstrates that they are not planning a surprise attack. They also offer information on the types of forces they have and where those units are stationed.
