PROTOCOL OF THE SOVIET-AMERICAN MEETING ON DUAL-USE TECHNOLOGIES AND CONVERSION.
Having discussed the reports of the roundtable participants and having become acquainted with a number of defense plants actively participating in applying dual-use technologies and in a conversion process, the parties agreed on the desirability of further bilateral committee activities and on in-depth discussions of the following problems:
-
Conceptual framework for helping to ensure that there will not be unanticipated technological breakthroughs in non-nuclear fields that could significantly change the military relationships among nations;
-
Identification of those categories of technical manpower which have unique knowledge concerning significant weapon systems and which could serve as channels for transferring such knowledge internationally in a manner which would enable the recipient countries to develop or produce weapon systems which could change the military relationships among nations;
-
Encouraging openness in basic research on technologies which could eventually have both military and civilian applications, through dissemination of research findings, international cooperation, and other means on a mutually beneficial basis;
-
The feasibility and desirability of separating applied research activities for military purposes from applied research activities for civilian purposes involving dual-use technologies, with emphasis on:
-
technologies which are "choke points" for military systems; and
-
practical aspects of implementation;
-
-
Case studies of programs to develop and apply dual-use technologies for civilian purposes which are also designed to limit diversion of such technologies to military applications;
-
Regular reports by industrial enterprises engaged in high technology activities which could contribute to the confidence of other nations that civilian industrial activities are not being diverted to military purposes without the knowledge of other countries;
-
Economic aspects of the development and production of dual-use technologies;
-
Current trends in export control in the USSR, the U.S., and multilaterally;
-
Contributions of verification schemes and other control measures to the building of confidence among nations as to the applications of dual-use technologies and the possibilities of reconversion;
-
Joint preparation of lists of technologies as the basis for controlling as appropriate:
-
critical military technologies;
-
basic technologies with civilian applications; and
-
dual-use technologies.
