Action 5: The nuclear-weapon States commit to accelerate concrete progress on the steps leading to nuclear disarmament, contained in the Final Document of the 2000 Review Conference, in a way that promotes international stability, peace and undiminished and increased security. To that end, they are called upon to promptly engage with a view to, inter alia:

1. Rapidly moving towards an overall reduction in the global stockpile of all types of nuclear weapons, as identified in action 3;
2. Address the question of all nuclear weapons regardless of their type or their location as an integral part of the general nuclear disarmament process;
3. To further diminish the role and significance of nuclear weapons in all military and security concepts, doctrines and policies;

5. Consider the legitimate interest of non-nuclear-weapon States in further reducing the operational status of nuclear weapons systems in ways that promote international stability and security;
6. Reduce the risk of accidental use of nuclear weapons; and
