緬甸與大規模殺傷性武器

緬甸現時普遍認為不具有大規模殺傷性武器，但曾被懷疑啟動了核武器的開發計畫。^[1]但是，國際社會普遍認為如果這樣的計畫確實存在，緬甸的技術和財政限制可能使該計畫難以成功。^[2]

緬甸長期以來一直受到使用化學武器的指控，然而，核威脅倡議組織（英語：Nuclear Threat Initiative）表示「沒有證據證明緬甸有化武計畫」。^[3]另外一方面，緬甸近年來也開始經濟改革和開放，與西方世界的關係亦沒有之前那麼緊張，發展大規模殺傷性和核武器計劃的誘因也沒有那麼迫切的必要。^[4]^[5]

緬甸是核不擴散條約的成員國，但不是化學或生物不擴散條約的成員國。^[5]
