Former Secretary of State George P. Schultz, who helped to re-energize global nuclear disarmament efforts with recent op-eds in the Wall Street Journal [2] calling for a "world without nuclear weapons," has become the newest member of Ploughshares Fund's advisory board.
With co-authors Henry Kissinger, William Perry and Sam Nunn, Shultz has laid out the steps required for achiving that goal. As he told Ploughshares Fund grantee Tyler Wigg-Stevenson [3] in a recent interview [4], “People say it’s going to be forever to get there. I think we have to say, no, it’s not going to be forever. We can do this. We’ve got to get going and do it.”
