Signing Ceremony of the Treaty of the African Nuclear Weapon Free Zone

  • Share

"By agreeing to this Treaty, we hope that we have expanded the frontiers of peace and that this important undertaking by the Continent will be reciprocated by clear action to check the horizontal proliferation of nuclear weapons. The Nuclear Weapon States know very well that unless they show example by concrete action in actual disarmament, many countries will remain skeptical and at worst suspecting of the very philosophical basis for Nuclear Weapon Free Zones. We all know how in spite of the many decades of trying, the Non-Proliferation Treaty has failed to achieve total universality on account in part of the lack of progress in curbing horizontal Nuclear Weapons Proliferation." - Dr. Salim, April 11, 1996
