Abstract

The article deals with the problems of the regulation of conventional weapons, the perspectives of regulation of weapon of mass destruction, especially biological weapon. The sphere of international security requires the conventional limitation of the arms development. In the modern world, new threats, such as terrorism and geopolitical dominance, lead to the need to strengthen the international equipment control. First of all, it is necessary to strengthen the conventional control and prohibit or limit a number of weapons' types. Without international control, primarily through the UN, there is a serious risk of the use of new types of weapons by various marginal groups in countries with unstable state control.
