The Atlantic Charter was prepared during the WWII. It was a step forward to global peace. Let us check the answers. Banning nuclear research would not make sense since the Allies were actively working on that technique and only few could understand the immense power of that new weapon. Shutting down national armies is a dream that cannot be achieved in the near future and the Allies did not call for that, especially during times of war. They also did not refer to dictatorships; if the regime was respecting the right of its neighbot countries then it was not affected by this charter. The Allies decided to adopt the principle of disarming aggressive nations since they were a threat to the stability of world peace given modern technological progress.
