The Missile Technology Control Regime's Commerce Control List (CCL) has been amended to control trade in some high-precision bearings.
The MTCR Plenary Agreement is a 34-nation export control arrangement among the most technologically advanced nations capable of producing ballistic missiles and missile-related materials and equipment.
MTCR sets a common policy that applies to all of the participating countries and is an attempt to control the international trade in advanced arms parts and technologies.
The goal of MTCR is to stop international trade in missile systems capable of delivering weapons of mass destruction to the global marketplace.
Originally set up in 1987 to control the flow of nuclear missile technology, the MTCR was amended in 1993 to address chemical and biological weapons as well.
