“Switzerland has given its support to plans for a global security strategy in the context of United Nations reforms aimed at "freeing the world of fear". The country’s ambassador to the UN, Peter Maurer, told the General Assembly that member states should strengthen the multilateral system of arms control and disarmament for nuclear, biological and chemical weapons.” Maurer said the International Agency for Atomic Energy (IAEA), the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons and the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organisation should regularly inform the Security Council of developments of particular concern in their area.” Swiss Info / The Daily Nonproliferator, 4/22/2005
