Permanent Representation of the Russian Federation spoke about the difficulties in reducing nuclear weapons

26
Russia can not move towards reducing nuclear weapons exclusively on a bilateral basis with the United States, disregarding the potential of other states, transfers RIA News a comment published on the website of the Russian Permanent Mission to the UN.





Russia cannot move further along the path of reducing nuclear weapons exclusively on a bilateral basis with the United States (not to mention that the line of the Donald Trump administration on issues such as the future of the Treaty on measures to further reduce and limit on the elimination of medium and shorter range missiles). In fact, we have already reached the line beyond which the corresponding hypothetical negotiations should be multilateral. Not taking into account the potentials of all other nuclear-weapon States in the process of such discussions no longer works,
the commentary says.

The Permanent Mission also stressed the need to be extremely responsible and cautious in evaluating the overall prospects for nuclear disarmament.

We give and will continue to give priority to all factors affecting the situation in this area. Among them are the creation of a US global missile defense, the prospect of weapons in space, the non-ratification of the CTBT (Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty) by the United States and several other states, Washington’s plans to build a global lightning strike potential, remaining imbalances in conventional weapons,
The report says.

The agency recalls that 7 July, following several weeks of negotiations in the UN, a convention on the complete prohibition of nuclear weapons was adopted. The nuclear powers did not participate in drafting the treaty, including the permanent members of the UN Security Council - Russia, the United Kingdom, China and the United States.

The Convention will enter into force 90 days after it is ratified by at least 50 countries. On September 20, the number of signatories was 51.

      We were already disarmed in the 90s! Let the USA show an example to all countries (we also destroyed our chemical weapons, unlike the United States ..)))
      And the conclusion is .. Tricky, arrogant moneylenders!

        The United States does not plan to accede to the Convention on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, the text of which was agreed on July 7 by the participants of the UN conference. This was stated by the official representative of the US State Department, Heather Neuerth, reports a REGNUM correspondent.
        “The United States did not participate in these negotiations and will not support this agreement,” the press service of the US Foreign Ministry quoted Neuert as saying.
        The State Department spokeswoman noted that Washington "over the years and under various administrations has clearly expressed its willingness to work with all states to improve international security and reduce the risk of nuclear war."
        “However, the proposed treaty ignores current security challenges that make nuclear deterrence necessary,” said Neuert.
        She emphasized that "not a single nuclear-weapon state has participated in these negotiations, and not a single US ally that relies on expanded nuclear deterrence has supported the final text."

        signed it
        it was ratified by representatives of 51 states, including Algeria, Austria, Brazil, Vatican, Costa Rica, Indonesia, Cuba, Libya, Liechtenstein, Mexico, New Zealand, Palestine, South Africa, Thailand, Venezuela and others ...

        It may not be worth it to build up, but constantly improve technologically, update, this must be done. As is generally happening now. And if we were to set the apple on hyper, then we’ll look at the squeals of mattresses with their much-praised missile defense.

    They did not participate in the development of the treaty, including the permanent members of the UN Security Council - Russia, Great Britain, China and the USA.

    Therefore, they will not sign any convention. Therefore, countries without nuclear weapons should not be in the clouds and hope that the nuclear powers begin to disarm. Not for this was created nuclear weapons, so that someone does not know who banned him.

    Trump is certainly a setup in terms of unpredictability, and in general the absence of a coherent policy. Figs know what to expect from him. Hence, such advances in fundamental treaties with the United States.

      there are definitely two things you can expect from him: work to get the US out of the crisis and the “republican” model of behavior in foreign policy .. as for me that's all you need to know about this person as the US president ... he reminds Reagan, only much worse versed in politics and better in economics ...

    "Russia cannot move towards reducing nuclear weapons exclusively on a bilateral basis with the United States, not taking into account the potential of other states"...

    Lord, I finally waited for a real understanding and assessment of the situation, - thank God - openly said this not only to the avid "partner" - the United States, but to the whole world ... good
    PS True, it is disappointing that Russia destroyed its chemical weapons, but the USA has not yet begun ... and the US bio-bio-laboratories in Georgia and / or Ukraine are very "embarrassing" to me ...

    The title of the article is frankly IDIOTIC. What we did not know all these last 30-40 years, that this is the problem7, Reductions are in the direction of Russia-USA. Everything else before our treaties with the Americans is simple Violet.
