Explained in plain English

What are 'standard notification practices'?

'Standard notification practices' are informal or formal agreements between countries to inform each other about military activities that could be seen as threatening. For missile tests, this often means giving advance notice of the launch window, trajectory, and impact area. The US and its allies are pushing for these practices to be consistently applied globally.
