Treaty on nuclear spread seen as start despite flaws
At the United Nations, sponsors hailed a new treaty curbing nuclear weapons spread though many nations call it imperfect. Critics doubt effect on the arms race while some near-nuclear countries refuse to sign and others fear Africa and China may not join. The pact is framed as a first step after a decade of talks.
