Who organizes or hosts PSI functions?
The PSI is not a formal organization with a budget and headquarters, but rather an interdiction partnership among participating states taking steps consistent with their respective national legal authorities and international law and frameworks to deter, disrupt and prevent WMD proliferation. Experts from twenty leading PSI endorsing states meet three to four times annually in the Operational Experts Group (OEG) to consider ways to enhance WMD interdiction capabilities of all PSI participants and build support for the PSI. The Office of Secretary of Defense leads the U.S. delegation to the OEG meetings.
