UNODA High Representative @INakamitsu regrets that States parties to the NPT were unable to agree on outcome document. It remains the cornerstone of our collective security architecture. States should make use of all available avenues for dialogue to eliminate the nuclear threat.

It was a great conversation which allowed me to reflect a lot on the work I’ve been doing since 2021! Thank you @NTI_WMD for highlighting my story!

Nearly 3.5 million people across Japan have urged the government to uphold its non-nuclear principles and join the #nuclearban. Led by Nihon Hidankyo and other civil society, they demand Japan to take real leadership for a world free of nuclear weapons.

Such an honour to be in Nagasaki and be able to engage in conversations with hibakusha! What a moment that was captured during this @IPPNW World Congress

Today, we celebrate the renewal of the mandate of the WHO to study and report on the Effects of Nuclear War on Public Health

We extend our deepest gratitude to the Marshall Islands, Samoa, and Vanuatu for their exceptional leadership, and to all supporting states.

The Doomsday Clock moving ahead to 89 seconds to midnight is a stark reminder that we must act NOW. As @BulletinAtomic put it: “Every second of delay in reversing course increases the probability of global disaster.” But there is reason for hope, like the #NuclearBan Treaty. 🧵

[Alicia Sanders-Zakre @azakre]

Enormous congratulations to Nihon Hidankyo for this very well deserved recognition of their tireless work to raise awareness of the catastrophic consequences of nuclear weapons and to call for their urgent elimination.

[Aigerim Seitenova she/her views are personal @hello_gera]

This is HUGE🕊️
Congratulations #NihonHidankyo for winning #NobelPeacePrize.
I feel grateful for Hibakusha and their decades of work towards the world free from nuclear weapons.
