Abstract
Some say that it is nothing but an illusion to think of a world totally without nuclear weapons. This might be true. Nonetheless, although the total abolition of nuclear weapons seems, at present, to be quite difficult, promoting Nuclear Weapons Free Zones (NWFZs) from a regional standpoint might encourage further large-scale non-proliferation processes. NWFZs are important elements to be brought into the debate when dealing with the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons on a global scale. Also for regional security reasons, NWFZs are crucial. In particular, there is a need for an NWFZ in Northeast Asia.
