As the 80th anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings approaches, the UN hosts its third Meeting of States Parties to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW). This Treaty aims to eliminate nuclear arms and provide reparations for affected people. While 94 countries have signed, notable nations like the US and Japan have not. Activists gathered at the UN to push for nuclear disarmament, highlighting the intersection of nuclear issues with social justice and health concerns, stressing the lasting impact of nuclear warfare on communities.
The TPNW not only abolishes nuclear weapons but also calls for reparations for radiation victims and the remediation of contaminated environments.
Activists rallied at the UN Meeting of States Parties to urge countries like the US, Canada, and Japan to sign the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.
