Marc Finaud
After graduating from Law School and the Paris Institute of Political Science, I was a diplomat in the French Foreign Service from 1977 to 2013. I served in Leningrad, Paris, Madrid, Warsaw, Geneva, New York, Tel Aviv, and Sydney. I now train junior diplomats and military officers at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy and conduct research in arms control, international humanitarian law, and the Middle East.

arrangements dealing with arms control, non-proliferation and disarmament, many of which include an on-site inspection (OSI) regime as part
of the treaty’s verification regime. Other inspections arise as a result of
specific, often unique, events, such as those following the Iraq war. To
date, tens of thousands of inspections have been conducted. Most of these
are routine and are based on declarations provided by the party being
inspected that need to be confirmed. Others, much fewer in number, are
of a challenge type and involve more of a fact-finding mission. This study
examines these inspection regimes with a view to assessing their usefulness and effectiveness, both individually and collectively.
