ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

2010 Nuclear Security Summit

Okay, so there was a really big meeting that happened in 2010, kind of like when you and your friends have a playdate at your house. But instead of kids playing games, the meeting was for important people from different countries to talk about something called nuclear security.

Nuclear security is all about making sure that really dangerous weapons called nuclear weapons don't fall into the wrong hands. It's kind of like making sure that your toys that could hurt someone are put away properly so nobody gets hurt.

At this meeting, the important people talked about ways they could work together to make sure that nuclear weapons don't get stolen or used by bad people. They also discussed making sure that countries that have nuclear weapons use them in a safe way.

Overall, the meeting was about making the world a safer place for everyone. And just like how you try to be nice to your friends on your playdates, the leaders at the meeting were trying to be nice to each other and work together to solve a big problem.
