The UK supports Sweden's Stepping Stones initiative on disarmament, which consists of Non-Nuclear Weapon States, and we value their leadership in this area. Although we do not agree with all of their recommendations, we have constructive engagement with Sweden and a broad range of international partners on disarmament issues.
