Solution

The correct option is D 1, 2 and 3
Explanation:
  • Pair 1 is correctly matched: Australia Group (AG) is an informal group of countries (now joined by the European Commission) to help member countries identify those exports which need to be controlled, making sure that they do not contribute to the spread of chemical and biological weapons.
  • Pair 2 is correctly matched: The Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) was started to check the proliferation of unmanned delivery systems for nuclear weapons (particularly systems that could carry a payload of 500 kg to a range of 300 km).
  • Pair 3 is correctly matched: The Wassenaar Arrangement is a body responsible to contribute to security and stability at the regional and international level by promoting transparency and greater responsibility in the transfer of dual-use goods and technologies and conventional arms.
