Efficiently controlling on nuclear weapons is essential for international security.The nuclear non-proliferation regime is currently the most effective mechanism to prevent nuclear proliferation.Since the 1960 s,in order to restrain nuclear proliferation,the international community has set a series of treaties and established relevant institutions.Rich uranium resources give Australia a important position in the international nuclear non-proliferation arena.Since the birth of nuclear weapons,Australia's attitude has undergone a series of changes: actively seeking nuclear technique support before the 1970s;abandoned nuclear support in the early 1970 s and gradually participated in the existing nuclear non-proliferation regime;initiated a series of initiatives in the late 1980 s Informal multilateral mechanisms aimed at promoting the denuclearization of the world,and the state's actions of non-strict compliance in the late 1990 s.For decades,Australia has experienced many shifts in attitudes from exclusion to activeness to rent-seeking.Australia's enthusiasm for participating in the international nuclear non-proliferation regime is gradually decreasing.The nuclear non-proliferation field is an crucial platforms for Australia to seek international discourse.Australia's attitude on the nuclear non-proliferation directly affects its national reputation,and it has a long way to win the trust of the international community.As can be seen from the case of Australia,the binding force of the nuclear non-proliferation system has weakened.The international community should closely follow the pace of the international situation,attach importance to the potential crisis brought by terrorism and non-state actors,review and improve the regime on the basis of the original system.
