 핵의 위기에 여전히 어리석도록 무관심한 젊은이들

 【유엔IDN=로드니 레이놀즈】

1945년8월의 히로시마 ,나가사끼에 원폭이 투하된후 70년이상이 흘러      평화활동가들은[핵무기없는세계]로 향한 운동을 끊임없이 이어왔다.       이문제에 관하여 장기간에 걸쳐 논의를 하여온 유엔은 매년 핵군축에 관한 많은 결의안을 채택하여 왔습니다.

따라서,유엔총회(193개국 가맹)가 작년12월에 2015년의 회기를 군비관리,        군축에 관한 57건의 결의안을 채택하여 체결을 한것은 놀라울 일도아니다.       이같은 결의속에서 실로23건이 핵무기관련건이었다.

BERLIN | VIENNA (IDN) – Twenty years after it was opened for signature, the CTBT has come to stay as a de facto global treaty banning all nuclear testing – “if we take North Korea outside of the scope” – but Dr Zerbo Lassina wants to see it de jure because he is concerned that the longer it takes for its entry into force, the greater is the risk of a “fatigue” creeping in that could lead to people saying: “Why are we investing in something if we don’t know when the treaty will come into force?”

Rescuing Multilateral Disarmament

By Jayantha Dhanapala*

KANDY, Sri Lanka (IDN) – The International Peace Institute, since its inception as the International Peace Academy in 1970, has focused on strengthening the multilateral process in the conduct of international affairs with the United Nations as its focal point. It is appropriate that in the 70th anniversary year of our indispensable global institution, the UN, an Independent Commission on Multilateralism should be established by the IPI to address 16 topics of relevance to the global agenda.

It is a necessary corollary to the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals that the international community has agreed to pursue. I welcome especially the Commission’s choice of “Weapons of Mass Destruction, Nonproliferation and Disarmament” as one of them.

UNITED NATIONS (IDN) – When the 15-member UN Security Council (UNSC) met at an emergency session on February 7, a non-working Sunday afternoon, to discuss the most recent defiance by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), the outcome was predictable.

After “urgent consultations”, the UNSC “strongly condemned” DPRK for launching a rocket which could lead to the future development of intercontinental ballistic missile technologies.
