Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative [website]
From the About AMTI page: "The center of gravity in world affairs has shifted to Asia. No other region will do more to determine whether the 21st century will be a peaceful and prosperous one. For this reason, it is imperative that Pacific nations do everything in their power to reduce the risk of inadvertent or accidental conflict. The maritime environment in East Asia contains both promise and peril. The Indo-Pacific region is host to some of the world's most important shipping lanes, facilitates huge volumes of regional trade, and boasts abundant natural resources. Competing territorial claims, incidents between neighboring countries, and increasing militarization, however, raise the possibility that an isolated event at sea could become a geopolitical catastrophe. This is all occurring against a backdrop of relative opaqueness. Geography makes it difficult to monitor events as they occur, and there is no public, reliable authority for information on maritime developments. The Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative seeks to change this. AMTI was conceived of and designed by CSIS [Center for Strategic and International Studies]. It is an interactive, regularly-updated source for information, analysis, and policy exchange on maritime security issues in Asia. AMTI aims to promote transparency in the Indo-Pacific to dissuade assertive behavior and conflict and generate opportunities for cooperation and confidence building. Because AMTI aims to provide an objective platform for exchange, AMTI and CSIS take no position on territorial or maritime claims. For consistency, all geographic locations are identified using the naming conventions of the United States Government as determined by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names."

Joint Statement of Intent by Mr. Jean-Yves Le Drian, Minister of Defence of the French Republic, and the Honorable Ashton Carter, Secretary of Defense of the United States of America
"France and the United States have built, over the past two centuries, the oldest alliance between two nations on the European and American continents. Formed in the crucible of the U.S. War of Independence, the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, and all the common struggles faced by our two countries in the past half-century, this alliance is first and foremost the offspring of women and men who share common values, as well as the will and capacity to defend them. The French and American people have constantly embodied this alliance. The support France extended to the American people following the September 11, 2001, attacks against the United States was reciprocated by U.S. shows of solidarity with France the day after the November 13, 2015, attacks. Today, military cooperation between France and the United States is stronger than ever. At the core of our partnership is the awareness that France and the United States face similar security challenges, and that we must confront them together. […]In the coming years, we anticipate having to face together a range of threats from both State and non-State actors while striving to uphold the international rules-based order. This Joint Statement of Intent seeks to capture our vision and provide a framework for future bilateral cooperation. As its authors and leaders of our militaries, we acknowledge the non-legally binding nature of this document, but believe that it is important to make this public statement together."

National Infrastructure Protection Plan [Overview]
"Protecting and ensuring the continuity of the critical infrastructure and key resources (CIKR) of the United States is essential to the Nation's security, public health and safety, economic vitality, and way of life. CIKR includes physical or virtual assets, systems, and networks so vital to the United States that the incapacity or destruction of such assets, systems, or networks would have a debilitating impact on security, national economic security, public health or safety, or any combination of those matters. The National Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP) provides the coordinated approach that is used to establish national priorities, goals, and requirements for CIKR protection so that Federal resources are applied in the most effective and efficient manner to reduce vulnerability, deter threats, and minimize the consequences of attacks and other incidents. It establishes the overarching concepts relevant to all CIKR sectors identified under the authority of Homeland Security Presidential Directive 7, and addresses the physical, cyber, and human considerations required for effective implementation of protective programs and resiliency strategies."

"This Nuclear Proliferation Assessment Statement ('NPAS') relates to the proposed Agreement for Cooperation Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of India Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy (the 'Agreement'). The Agreement is being submitted to the President jointly by the Secretary of State and the Secretary of Energy for his approval. Section 123a. of the Atomic Energy Act, as amended (the 'Atomic Energy Act' or 'the AEA'), provides that an NPAS be submitted by the Secretary of State to the President on each new or amended agreement for cooperation concluded pursuant to that section. Pursuant to section 123a., the NPAS must analyze the consistency of the text of the proposed agreement with all the requirements of the AEA, with specific attention to whether the proposed agreement is consistent with each of the criteria set forth in that subsection, and address the adequacy of the safeguards and other control mechanisms and the peaceful use assurances contained in the agreement for cooperation to ensure that any assistance furnished thereunder will not be used to further any military or nuclear explosive purpose. With this statutory mandate in mind, this NPAS: (a) provides background information on India's civil nuclear program and the military nuclear program from which it is being separated (Part I); (b) describes the nature and scope of the cooperation contemplated in the proposed Agreement (Part II); (c) reviews the applicable substantive requirements of the AEA and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Act of 1978 ('NNPA') and details how they are met by the proposed Agreement (Part III); (d) addresses additional relevant policy issues (Part IV); and (e) sets forth the net assessment, conclusions, views and recommendations of the Department of State as contemplated by section 123a. of the AEA (Part V)."

Historic Deal that Will Prevent Iran from Acquiring a Nuclear Weapon: How the U.S. and the International Community Will Block All of Iran's Pathways to a Nuclear Weapon [Obama Administration White House Archives]
This is the archived version of the Obama Administration's website section on the Iran Deal. "President Obama has been clear that achieving a peaceful resolution that prevents Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon will make the United States, our allies, and our world safer. When President Obama took office he underscored that the United States was prepared to resolve this issue diplomatically -- but only if Iran came to the table in a serious way. When that did not happen, we rallied the world to impose the toughest sanctions in history--sanctions that had a profound impact on the Iranian economy. Sanctions alone could not stop Iran's nuclear program. But they did help bring Iran to the negotiating table. Because of our diplomatic efforts, the world stood with us, and we were joined at the negotiating table by the world's major powers -- the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, and China, as well as the European Union. The goal: Reaching a long-term diplomatic resolution that verifiably prevents Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. In November 2013, the P5+1 and Iran took an important first step toward that goal with the Joint Plan of Action (JPOA), which halted the progress of Iran's program and rolled back it back in key areas for the first time in nearly a decade. The IAEA has verified that Iran has met all of its obligations under the JPOA. Today, after many months of principled diplomacy building on the JPOA, we have achieved a framework for a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)."

Fact Sheet: U.S.- India Defense Relationship
"The United States is committed to a long-term strategic partnership with India. We respect India as a regional and emerging global power as well as a provider of regional security. We see a growing convergence with India on our strategic outlook for the Asia-Pacific region and India's role in shaping the Asian landscape. The past decade has been particularly transformative in the bilateral relationship, culminating in President Obama's successful January trip to New Delhi as the Chief Guest for India's 66th Republic Day celebrations. The president's visit resulted in several key defense outcomes, including finalizing the 2015 Framework for the U.S.-India Defense Relationship. This Framework provides our two nations with guiding principles for defense engagement for the coming decade, including our military exchanges and exercises, a promising outlook on defense trade, and increasingly close consultations on regional security issues and maritime security."
