- Major success for advocates of arms control as it set a precedent for international cooperation between nuclear and non-nuclear states to prevent proliferation
- Some of the main points of the 1968 NPT included:
1) signatories agreed not to transfer either nuclear weapons or nuclear weapons technology to any other state. 
2) the non-nuclear states agreed that they would not receive, develop or otherwise acquire nuclear weapons. All of the signatories agreed to submit to the safeguards against proliferation established by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
3) parties to the treaty also agreed to cooperate in the development of peaceful nuclear technology and to continue negotiations to help end the nuclear arms race and limit the spread of the technology. 
- The treaty was given a 25-year time limit, with the agreement that it would be reviewed every 5 years. 
- The NPT is regarded as a success for the United States and the Soviet Union as these nations succeeded in imposing a permanent division of the world into two types of powers -nuclear and non-nuclear- reducing the possibility of non-nuclear nations rising to pose a threat to the two Superpowers
