This paper looks at the history of the 'P5 Process'. The author also examines examples of other non-proliferation initiatives that have come about since the initiation of the P5 Process in 2009, what the P5 Process has achieved so far and what the future might hold for the process. In general, she contends that the process has improved understanding and relations between the P5 countries (China, the US, Russia, France and the UK), but that on the whole the results of the process have been disappointing.
