The Secretary General of the United Nations has called for complete destruction of nuclear weapons in the world as the only way to “eliminate the nuclear risk”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When \u201cgeopolitical mistrust and competition\u201d has pushed the nuclear risk to Cold War levels, total elimination of such weapons is the only route to a peaceful future, the UN chief has said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Antonio Guterres tweeted these statements on Tuesday, September 26, to mark the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Let’s work together to banish these devices of destruction to the history books, once and for all,” he addressed all nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr. Guterres called to use \u201cthe timeless tools of dialogue, diplomacy and negotiation to ease tensions and end the nuclear threat\u201d, reminding that disarmament is at the heart of his Policy Brief on a New Agenda for Peace, launched in July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It should be noted that Antonio Guterres had warned last year that only one misunderstanding or miscalculation can put humanity on the verge of “nuclear annihilation”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the 10th review conference of the “Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty” in New York, Guterres warned that the world was facing \u201ca nuclear danger not seen since the height of the Cold War\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
