Who’s Who of Securing Loose Nukes
Posted by Kelsey Hartigan

As I noted last night, President Obama’s comments on securing vulnerable nuclear materials received a standing ovation from both sides of the aisle.  (Though according to ABC’s tweet…there were 37 standing ovations in all…)
Now, even as we prosecute two wars, we're also confronting perhaps the greatest danger to the American people -– the threat of nuclear weapons.  I've embraced the vision of John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan through a strategy that reverses the spread of these weapons and seeks a world without them.  To reduce our stockpiles and launchers, while ensuring our deterrent, the United States and Russia are completing negotiations on the farthest-reaching arms control treaty in nearly two decades.  And at April's Nuclear Security Summit, we will bring 44 nations together here in Washington, D.C. behind a clear goal:  securing all vulnerable nuclear materials around the world in four years, so that they never fall into the hands of terrorists.  (And the crowd goes wild...)
As a follow-up on the President’s plug, the White House announced today whichcountries received invitations to attend. Via Josh Gerstein of Politico:

Israel is among the countries President Barack Obama has invited to Washington to discuss nuclear security issues this spring, the White House confirmed Thursday. However, Iran, the country whose nuclear ambitions are most the focus of international suspicion at the moment, will not be attending.

Arab countries on the 43-nation guest list include Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Egypt, whose foreign minister regularly hounds Israel over its nuclear arsenal during international meetings. All the major nuclear powers are also expected to attend the summit, along with countries like India and Pakistan who built and tested small numbers of weapons in recent years.

Another nation whose nuclear program has triggered widespread concern, North Korea, is also absent from the invite list, although neighboring South Korea will be present.

The full list, as released by the White House to POLITICO Thursday morning, is as follows:

Argentina
Australia
Belgium
Brazil
Canada
Chile
China
Czech Republic
Egypt
Finland
France
Georgia
Germany
India
Indonesia
Israel
Italy
Japan
Jordan
Kazakhstan
Malaysia
Mexico
Morocco
Netherlands
New Zealand
Nigeria
Norway
Pakistan
Philippines
Poland
Russia
Saudi Arabia
Singapore
South Africa
South Korea
Spain
Sweden
Switzerland
Turkey
Ukraine
United Arab Emirates
United Kingdom
Vietnam

I for one, am pretty relieved to see that Russia made the cut...

In September of last year, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Israeli television that, while Obama was speaking publicly about the goal of a nuclear-free world, he had also reaffirmed longstanding agreements between the U.S. and Israel that the U.S. would not single Israel out for pressure on the issue.
