Actually, the NPT does say in Article VI that in exchange for everyone else not trying to build nukes of their own:
Each of the Parties to the Treaty undertakes to pursue negotiations in good faith on effective measures relating to cessation of the nuclear arms race at an early date and to nuclear disarmament, and on a treaty on general and complete disarmament under strict and effective international control.
Of course, the treaty gives no firm timetable, but all 5 powers are basically dragging thier heels as best as they can on the subject. The treaty is written so that
technically they can't violate the treaty, but I doubt any reasonable interpreter can say that they are actually complying with it.
