Nuclear power plants are dangerous, not to mention nuclear weapons.

Recommendations for nuclear disarmament and non proliferation of nuclear weapons .

We must continue practical, systematic and progressive efforts to advance nuclear disarmament globally and reduce nuclear weapons towards a world free of nuclear weapons.

Nuclear weapon States should abandon the policy of nuclear deterrence based on first use of nuclear weapons and should reduce the role of nuclear weapons in their national security.

The concept of nuclear weapons free zones as steps towards a nuclear weapons free world was a common theme.

A chemical weapons ban should not be hostage to nuclear weapons.

They discourage non nuclear weapon States from opting for nuclear weapons.

While not all nuclear weapons control agreements concern weapons complexes (for example, the START I Treaty is based on limiting the numbers of deployed strategic nuclear warheads and delivery systems), we address here the main purposes of verifying a nuclear weapons complex in a hypothetical future nuclear weapons agreement.

They reiterate that the development of new types of nuclear weapons is in contravention of the commitments provided by the nuclear weapons States at the conclusion of the CTBT, ensuring that the Treaty would prevent improvement of existing nuclear weapons and the development of new types of nuclear weapons.

Negotiations towards a Nuclear Weapons Convention or a framework of instruments for the complete abolition and elimination of nuclear weapons

Renunciation of the development of nuclear weapons by States without nuclear weapons is counterbalanced by access to cooperation and the commitment by the five nuclear Powers to eliminate their nuclear arsenals.

Of those, seven have nuclear weapons.

A diminishing role for nuclear weapons

The States parties express serious concern that the development of new types of nuclear weapons are being considered by one nuclear weapons State, and reiterated that the provision for the use or threat of use of nuclear weapons against non nuclear weapon States is in contravention of the security assurances provided by the nuclear weapons States.

Nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction should be completely eliminated.

Until the goal of the complete prohibition and thorough destruction of nuclear weapons is achieved, nuclear weapon States should commit themselves not to be the first to use nuclear weapons and should undertake unconditionally not to use or threaten to use nuclear weapons against non nuclear weapon States or nuclear weapon free zones.

proliferation of nuclear weapons technologies by one de facto nuclear capable state

The principles of non first use of nuclear weapons and non use and non threat of use of nuclear weapons against non nuclear weapon States were absolutely crucial.

We recognize that the only full guarantee against the use of nuclear weapons would be complete security of nuclear materials and a world free of all nuclear weapons.

Now if you consider the fact that nuclear weapons proliferation is associated with nuclear energy proliferation, because we know for example, India and Pakistan developed nuclear weapons secretly by enriching uranium in nuclear energy facilities.

The States parties recall that the nuclear weapon States reaffirmed their commitment not to transfer to any recipients nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices, or control over such weapons or explosive devices, directly or indirectly, and not, in any way, to assist, encourage or induce any non nuclear weapon States to manufacture or otherwise acquire nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices, or control over such weapons or explosive devices.

The nuclear weapons non proliferation regime and the nuclear weapons elimination regime were interdependent and necessary for achieving the main objective of NPT, which was the elimination of nuclear weapons within the framework of an effective international monitoring system.

Since the very day it came into possession of nuclear weapons, China has undertaken not to be the first to use nuclear weapons at any time or in any circumstance, and has undertaken unconditionally not to use or threaten to use nuclear weapons against non nuclear weapon States or nuclear weapon free zones.
