La Conferenza di Revisione del Trattato di Non Proliferazione si conclude senza un piano per il #DisarmoNucleare, nonostante molti Stati abbiano chiesto azioni urgenti per ridurre i rischi nucleari

The ITUC condemns the failure of the 2026 NPT Review Conference to advance nuclear disarmament.

While most states worked in good faith to reduce growing nuclear dangers, nuclear-armed states and their allies blocked meaningful progress and continued to rely on dangerous nuclear deterrence policies.

Trade unions worldwide are clear: nuclear weapons are incompatible with peace, democracy, social justice and human security.

More than 5 million signatures have been delivered calling for the elimination of nuclear weapons. Workers and communities should not pay the price of militarisation and nuclear escalation.

Lasting peace cannot coexist with nuclear weapons. Their complete elimination remains an urgent necessity for humanity.

Our annual overview of world nuclear forces is coming soon in the SIPRI Yearbook… 👇

According to research made by the Center for Security Studies in Zurich, 65% of the population think that nuclear weapons bring more danger than security. A summary of the report made by GSSA: https://t.co/qurR4OqmKf And the Swiss popular initiative: https://t.co/hX1fiMFvOT

2/ The vast majority of states, however, engaged vigorously throughout the month, calling for urgent action to reduce nuclear risks. Read more here: https://t.co/s463MjSRq6

🧵1/ Nuclear armed states, and those who support the use of nuclear weapons in their security strategies, once again resist efforts to advance nuclear disarmament at the #NPTRevCon. The meeting ends with no real plan. Read ICAN's team analysis here: https://t.co/s463MjSRq6

2/ Over the week, our partners have held meetings with parliamenterians and rallys in the city to voice their opposition. The vast majority of the Finnish says no nuclear weapons and their voices must be heard. Learn more about their work here: https://t.co/Shzq0DH70b #NuclearBan

🧵Civil society in Finland🇫🇮 has been clear: they oppose any policy allowing nuclear weapons to be stationed in the country, something the Finnish parliament is currently considering.

2/ So like Russia's Sarmat test last week, actions speak louder the words when it comes to their commitment to the treaty and reducing nuclear risks. #NuclearBan

1/ Russia has begun 3 days of major nuclear warfare exercises. Practicing how to inflict mass casualties on civilians is an appalling act that ICAN condemns. #NuclearBan

🧵1/ In a week marked by nuclear missile tests aimed at sending messages, the US has launched a Minuteman ICBM claiming it was not linked to world events. It's been done while US diplomats are at the UN NPT review conference in New York: https://t.co/6ldGFETnJ4

Debates continue behind closed doors at the #NPTRevcon where some countries want to erase previously established understanding that nuclear weapons cause catastrophic harm…. #NuclearBan

[ICAN @nuclearban]

‼️Coming back from China, Donald Trump declared that he and Xi Jinping, also discussed a world free of nuclear weapons. “We brought it up, the denuclearization. The concept of that is something that would be very good.” Time to turn that thought into action‼️#NuclearBan 😅

[ICAN @nuclearban]

2/ South Africa did so by emphasizing that nuclear disarmament is an obligation and an urgent priority, and by acknowledging the catastrophic humanitarian and environmental consequences of nuclear weapons.

🧵1/ At the #NPTRevCon, South Africa took the floor, in its capacity as the President of the 1st Review of the #TPNW, to argue that any outcome document must reflect the view of TPNW states parties, which group represents a majority of NPT member states: https://t.co/6k6N6943FK

[ICAN @nuclearban]

2/ Also doing this while countries are meeting at the UN to try to strengthen non-proliferation and disarmament under the #NPT suggests cynicism about the treaty’s objectives. #NPTRevCon

ICAN condemns the latest Belarus-Russia military exercise announced on May 18th, involving the training and deployment readiness of nuclear weapons.
At the very moment of the NPT Review Conference, Russia and Belarus are choosing nuclear intimidation over nuclear restraint.
