“We strongly believe that the integrity and validity of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) depends on the full implementation of all the obligations contained in it.” , including Article 6, according to which nuclear weapon states are obliged to negotiate effectively and result-oriented for nuclear disarmament.
Islamic Republic of Iran It has proven that it continuously strives to mobilize the collective political will of countries against nuclear weapons and to strengthen international norms for nuclear disarmament. The complete disarmament of nuclear weapons is the only credible and reliable way to prevent the recurrence of the disasters of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. weapons during the term of the presidency of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which will begin on March 18. show political will and fulfill their commitments regarding nuclear disarmament, the long-term impasse of this conference that has prevented the implementation of its mission will be broken.
Iran, as the biggest victim of weapons of mass destruction after World War II due to the chemical weapons used by the former Iraqi regime, emphasizes that the only guarantee of non-use of weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear weapons, Their complete, irreversible and verifiable deletion. It is necessary to clarify that the Islamic Republic of Iran does not consider the crime of using chemical weapons against its people to be subject to the passage of time and earnestly demands the clarification of the truth from the countries that sold the elements and technologies used by the Saddam regime to produce chemical weapons. And holding them accountable is in line with the rights of the victims. In Geneva
It is unfortunate that our collective efforts to establish a nuclear-weapon-free zone in West Asia, which for the first time It was proposed in 1974 at the initiative of Iran, and it has remained inconclusive by the United States of America and its allies as part of their active support for the real source of the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction in the region, that is, the Israeli regime.
In fact, the Israeli regime is the most immediate and tangible danger, not only to the defenseless Palestinians and the West Asian region, but to the entire world.
The international community must consider this threat seriously and take a decisive decision in the face of the unprecedented threat posed by this occupying, apartheid and militant regime to world peace.
The brutality that this US-backed apartheid regime has shown during its brutal genocide in Gaza for the past five months, and nothing in between – not women and children. Innocent, not UN staff, not journalists, not schools, not patients and hospitals – not considered a red line, together with the crimes of settlers in the West Bank, shows the extraordinary level of danger that is pushing the region towards a large-scale and imminent conflict. . This occupying regime has become so emboldened by the support of America and some other Western countries that it shamelessly threatens both the oppressed people of Gaza and the countries of the region with the use of nuclear weapons; For example, it was not the verbal mistake of Netanyahu’s cabinet minister who recommended the nuclear option to destroy the Hamas liberation movement.
before that In his speech at the UN General Assembly in September 2023, Netanyahu spoke of the necessity of a “real nuclear threat against Iran”.
In such a situation And by the way, can humanity just be a spectator and allow an aggressor and possessor of nuclear weapons to make such a reckless mockery of international law by continuing the genocide of the Palestinian nation and by jeopardizing regional peace and security?
Our common legal responsibility and moral obligation require us to stop the genocide and hold the aggressors accountable for committing war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity.
Meanwhile, the world must acknowledge that nuclear weapons in the hands of such a regime are the most serious and immediate threat to humanity. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to hold this illegitimate Israeli regime accountable for its law-breaking and evil behavior. It is necessary that all the nuclear weapons stockpiles of this regime be destroyed and all its nuclear facilities be placed under the safeguards and verification mechanisms of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
In a situation where the international security situation is clearly worsening, nuclear disarmament is not a choice, but a necessity. The Conference on Disarmament is the most appropriate framework for collective efforts to achieve this important goal. Therefore, it is necessary for all of us to have a constructive and effective participation to achieve this goal.”
