Abstract. The eighth Review Conference of the States – parties to the Treaty on Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons was held in New York on 3-28 May 2010. It was attended by a total of 172 states. The Conference became the most representative, authoritative and effective international forum in recent years specially devoted to key issues of nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament. The Conference ended by a consensus adoption of the substantive document containing a platform for action of the NPT member states to ensure the effective implementation of the Treaty in the five-year period. It was adopted in the format of a plan embracing 64 “actions” and reflected a real shift in the global situation in the field of nuclear security.
