Export control of nuclear and dual-use materials and technology was a field in the 1990s that required better national practices and a concerted international effort. These accounts describe how the lab-to-lab network helped build export-control awareness in the Russian nuclear community and integrate the Russian nuclear weapons research centers, VNIIEF and VNIITF, more fully into the national and international export-control system.
The papers were solicited for Doomed to Cooperate but could not be included in the printed volumes for reasons of space. They are published here as part of the book’s online companion.
A third paper prepared for this section, “Export Controls at RFNC-VNIIEF” by L. A. Kochankov and V. S. Kostrykin (VNIIEF), is not currently available.
