Summit urges acceptance of nuke terrorism treaty

World leaders concluding a 47-nation nuclear security conference April 13 endorsed U.S. President Barack Obama's call for securing all of the globe's vulnerable nuclear materials within four years but offered few specifics for achieving that goal.

Aiming for quick action, the United States declared that the Obama administration had submitted to Congress legislation to bring U.S. laws into line with two treaties: one to crack down on potential nuclear terrorism and one on the physical protection of nuclear materials.

Obama had called the summit to focus world attention on keeping such dangerous materials out of terrorist hands.

The summit countries said they would cooperate more deeply with the United Nations and its watchdog arm, the International Atomic Energy Agency. (AP)
