This is the pilot edition of Nuclear Energy Security Monitor.
More than our other Exchange Monitor Publications, NESM focuses on how North American nuclear power technologies are faring on the world stage. It will also hopefully, highlight new and inventive uses of commercial nuclear technology.
Many of the articles here appeared in other Exchange Monitor Publications, although some appear here for the first time. Nuclear Energy Security Monitor is also a work in progress. We welcome your feedback.
