The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) established the Megaports Initiative in 2003 to deter, detect, and interdict nuclear or other radiological materials smuggled through foreign seaports. The Initiative funds the installation of radiation detection equipment at select seaports overseas and trains foreign personnel to use this equipment to scan shipping containers entering and leaving these seaports, regardless of destination. Additionally, the U.S. government has identified four key gaps in foreign countries' capacity to prevent terrorist travel overseas. This book evaluates how U.S. capacity-building efforts address those gaps and assesses the extent to which the U.S. government is measuring progress in its efforts to close those gaps. --$cPreface. 410 0$aDefense, security and strategy series. 517 3 $aPrevention of nuclear smuggling and terrorist travel :$eUnited States-foreign partnership efforts 606 $aNuclear terrorism$xPrevention 606 $aSmuggling$xPrevention 606 $aTerrorists 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations 615 0$aNuclear terrorism$xPrevention. 615 0$aSmuggling$xPrevention. 615 0$aTerrorists. 676 $a363.325/17 702 $aPruitt$b Valere 712 02$aUnited States.$bGovernment Accountability Office, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910151739103321 996 $aPrevention of nuclear smuggling and terrorist travel$92883640 997 $aUNINA
