Saturday, 6 November 2021 (YJC)_ Iran's ambassador to the United Nations warned in a note, referring to Iran's proposed resolution on nuclear disarmament, that the dangers of existing nuclear weapons to human life and the planet are no less, if not greater, than those of the old nuclear weapons.
In a note, Majid Takht-e Ravanchi, the ambassador and permanent representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations, addressed Iran's proposed resolution on nuclear disarmament.
The text of the note of the Iranian ambassador to the UN is as follows:
Under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, all nuclear-weapon states have pledged to destroy all their nuclear weapons. In addition, they are legally obliged not only to refrain from any action to build nuclear weapons, but also to refrain from transferring such weapons to other countries, deploying them outside their territory, and cooperating with other governments to build nuclear weapons.
Under pressure from non-nuclear states, nuclear governments, after decades of non-compliance with their legal obligations, have reaffirmed their commitment to effective nuclear action in the final documents of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) review conferences in 1995, 2000 and 2010.
Nevertheless, a look at the available statistics and facts shows that not only do nuclear countries lack the political motivation to pursue nuclear disarmament, but also their nuclear activities, including increasing the quality of nuclear weapons, modernizing and increasing the destructive power of these weapons. The increase in the nuclear weapons budget and the promotion of the status of nuclear weapons in national security doctrines, even in violation of international regulations and commitments, has created a situation in which the past trend does not show a significant move towards nuclear disarmament and does not appear in the future. would have existed. It should be emphasized that in the absence of real nuclear disarmament, nuclear countries and their allies pursue a policy of reducing nuclear risk, which due to its very small scope and lack of consideration of real nuclear disarmament, this policy can not be pursued at all. He saw the appearance as an alternative and synonymous with nuclear disarmament.
In protest, the Islamic Republic of Iran has been the main sponsor of the Resolution "Pursuing the Implementation of the Agreements Agreed at the NPT Member States' Five-Year Review Conferences since 1995" every two years since 2005. The main purpose of this resolution is to implement the commitments of the nuclear states on nuclear disarmament and within the framework of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
The draft resolution was first submitted to the Committee of a General Assembly of the United Nations (Committee on Disarmament and International Security) and after review and initial decision in this committee, the result was sent to the General Assembly for consideration and final decision.
