Compliance Reports

Holy cow, the  2011 Compliance Report is out.

Here I am, sitting in Idaho Falls with a glass of wine, reflecting on what a lovely nuclear waste dump this state would make, getting ready to hit the sack and then I see that.

I don’t see anything earth shattering, but I perused the text very quickly.  One format change — the sections relating to compliance with the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) and the Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty are now in separate reports.  The State Departments released the so-called 10(C) and 5(C) reports, after sections in the resolutions of ratification containing the reporting requirement, at the same time.

Similarly, it looks like New START will get a separate report.
