Britain wants to scale back its Trident nuclear prevention program by cutting the number of missile-carrying submarines from four to three, Foreign Secretary David Miliband says.

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown will officially announce his readiness to scale back Trident when he speaks to the U.N. General Assembly on Wednesday afternoon, Brown's workplace at 10 Downing Street confirmed.

The conclusion is part of Britain's long-term goal of nuclear non-proliferation around the world, Miliband said late Tuesday outside the United Nations.

"President Obama has injected new drive into the effort to meet the goals of the non-proliferation treaty, which is a world free of nuclear weapons, and our prime minister, Gordon Brown, is resolute that Britain plays its full part in those discussions," Miliband said.
