The un secretary-ge(cid:374)eral"s five poi(cid:374)t proposal o(cid:374) (cid:374)uclear disar(cid:373)a(cid:373)e(cid:374)t. Or they could consider negotiating a nuclear-weapons convention, backed by a strong system of verification, as has long been proposed at the united nations. The world would also welcome a resumption of bilateral negotiations between the united. States and russian federation aimed at deep and verifiable reductions of their respective arsenals: governments should also invest more in verification research and development. Ki(cid:374)gdo(cid:373)"s proposal to host a (cid:272)o(cid:374)fere(cid:374)(cid:272)e of (cid:374)u(cid:272)lear-weapon states on verification is a concrete step in the right direction. We need new efforts to bring the ctbt into force, and for the conference on. Disarmament to begin negotiations on a fissile material treaty immediately, without preconditions. I support the entry into force of the central asian and african nuclear- weapon-free zone treaties. I encourage the nuclear-weapon states to ratify all the protocols to the nuclear-weapon-free zone treaties. I strongly support efforts to establish such a zone in the middle east.
