Part 1: Nuclear Weapons

As President, Dennis Kucinich will work to achieve the

following steps to promote world peace:

1. Leading the way toward the complete elimination of nuclear weapons

>from the earth. Kucinich's goal as president will be a steady

movement toward complete nuclear disarmament.

2. Renouncing first-strike policy. Kucinich will set aside the Bush
Administration's Nuclear Posture Review, which is a strategy for
nuclear proliferation. He will

assure the world community that the United States will not be the
first to use nuclear weapons.

3. Cancellation of all U.S. nuclear weapons programs.

Kucinich will work to put an end to the development of any new
nuclear weapons, to the manufacture of any nuclear

weapons, and to any plans to test nuclear weapons.

4. Stopping the use of all depleted uranium munitions.

Kucinich will order an end to the United States' use of depleted
uranium munitions. He will lead an international effort to recover
depleted uranium. He will promote environmental remediation. He
will develop a program to provide care and restitution for people
suffering as a

result of the United States' use of depleted uranium munitions,
nuclear weapons, nuclear weapons production, nuclear testing, and
uranium mining.

5. Banning all nuclear weapons testing by the United States. Kucinich
will enact a new policy banning nuclear testing and will work to
ratify the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty.

6. Opening talks with all nuclear powers. Kucinich will begin new
talks with Russia, China, Britain, France, India, Israel, and
Pakistan to develop a plan aimed at the complete elimination of
nuclear weapons. The first step will be to suspend all "readiness"
levels of nuclear weapons systems, including those of the United
States.

7. Encouraging participation in the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty.
Kucinich will encourage all nations to actively participate in the
Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty, and will meet personally with the
leaders of India, Israel, and Pakistan to request that they sign
as non-nuclear weapons states. He will also meet personally with
Kim Jong Il to encourage North Korea to re-join the community of
nations through reaffirming its participation as a non-nuclear
weapons state.

8. Discouraging nations from acquiring nuclear weapons.

Kucinich will work with the nations of North Korea, Iran, Algeria,
Sudan, Syria, and others to discourage the acquisition of nuclear
weapons capability.

9. Reinstating the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, and Canceling the
Ballistic Missile Defense. Kucinich will work with Russian President
Vladimir Putin to reinstate the

Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. The treaty prevents both the United
States and Russia from developing nationwide ABM defense systems
and limits employment of new ABM technologies. Consequently, the
ballistic missile defense program will be cancelled.

10. Meeting all requirements of the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty.
Kucinich will work to ensure that the United States leads the world
again in fulfilling all requirements of the treaty. This means the
United States must negotiate the complete elimination of its nuclear
arsenal.

11. Committing to greatly expanding inspections.

Kucinich will work with the 188 signatories of the Nuclear Non
Proliferation Treaty and the International Atomic Energy Agency to
greatly expand the use of inspections in all nations.

12. Leading an international effort to bring terrorists to justice.
Kucinich will cause the United States to participate in a cooperative
world effort to track down terrorists who are seeking to acquire
nuclear weapons capability.
