Signatories with nuclear weapons are explicitly prohibited from transferring any nuclear - weapons - related technology to any other state, «directly or indirectly».
But this type of cloning has little in common with somatic cell nuclear transfer.
The method, called somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), replaces the DNA in an egg cell's nucleus with the genetic material from the nucleus of a skin cell, then tricks the egg cell to start dividing as if it had been fertilized with sperm.

How can you have a meeting with people who come to it with a deep abiding faith that a fertilized egg is a person, and a blastocyst created by nuclear transfer is a person, and the destruction of that blastocyst to harvest stem cells is murder?

He reported in May 2013 using the Dolly technique, known more formally as somatic cell nuclear transfer, to derive stem cells from cloned human embryos, including from a baby with an inherited disorder.
But the favored reprogramming technique, somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), otherwise known as research cloning, is fraught with ethical pitfalls as well as technical difficulties because it entails creating a human embryo by inserting an adult cell nucleus into an ooctye.
Dolly was created using nuclear transfer, a technique in which an intact donor cell is fused with an egg whose nucleus had been removed.
Dolly was cloned using the technique of «somatic cell nuclear transfer,» when a nucleus from an adult cell is transferred into an unfertilized egg that has had its nucleus removed, and is then shocked with electricity to start cell growth.
A second transformative design innovation leverages gravity combined with conduction heat transfer ̶ two unfailingly reliable phenomena in nature — to facilitate all necessary heat removal from the plant's nuclear fuel, and subsequent expulsion of heat to the atmosphere.
«PRISM has the potential to offer an attractive solution to the disposition of civil plutonium and we look forward to working with GEH as they progress with their proposals to deploy PRISM in the U.K.» The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority has contracted GEH to carry out feasibility work in a number of key areas including the proposed commercial structure, disposability of the fuel, risk transfer model, costs and licensability of GEH's PRISM offering

The second method used somatic cell nuclear transfer (cloning techniques) to exchange all the mtDNA from the patient's cells with normal mtDNA from an egg donor in order to derive embryonic stem cells that are patient - specific with respect to nuclear DNA, but «rescued» with respect to mtDNA.
To whip up a human clone, doctors would most likely use a process called somatic cell nuclear transfer — the same technique they've used successfully with animals like Dolly, the famous (and now departed) sheep clone.
