First sentence: The NPT, which was signed in 1968, divides states party to the treaty into two groups: countries that "have manufactured and exploded a nuclear weapon or other nuclear explosive device prior to 1 January, 1967," known as nuclear weapons states (NWSs)1; and all other states, known as nonnuclear weapons states (NNWSs).
