The United Nations promotes the control and regulation of nuclear weapons in an effort to maintain world peace and protect future generations. The toxic impact of nuclear weapons lasts long after its use. Nuclear bombs release radiation that poisons the environment and endangers lives.
The United Nations Secretariat supports efforts aimed at the non-proliferation and total elimination of nuclear weapons. He also supports extending the norms against nuclear weapons, and in that sense urges States that possess nuclear weapons to affirm that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.
