Good morning from Vienna! As the #NPTPrepcom kicks off, ICAN and our partners are here to remind diplomats of the humanitarian impact of nuclear weapons, how the #nuclearban treaty complements the NPT & encourage states to join the TPNW to eliminate nuclear weapons. Stay tuned!

4/ We urge Kazakhstan to oppose the testing of nuclear-capable missiles on its territory. As a country where nuclear weapons were tested, Kazakhstan has contributed greatly  to the #TPNW, particularly in victim assistance, and should remain in full compliance.

3/ Under the TPNW, it is illegal for a state party to allow its territory to be used for the testing of nuclear-capable missiles, as this amounts to assisting a state to develop nuclear weapons, which is prohibited under article 1(1)(e). #NuclearBan icanw.org/the_treaty

2/ We condemn Russia’s ICBM test which comes against the backdrop of repeated threats to use nuclear weapons in recent months. These tests, as well as others conducted recently by North Korea and the United States, are irresponsible and further increase the current tensions.

ICAN is deeply concerned about media reports that Russia test-fired an intercontinental ballistic missile on 11 April into the territory of Kazakhstan, a state party to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) 🧵1/ themoscowtimes.com/2023/04/1…

Video of the nuclear warhead convoy on the roads near Loch Lomond in Scotland - what could go wrong? Signing #TPNW would take these nuclear weapons off our roads and out of our oceans #nuclearban @SecureScotland @WILPF @FiLiA_charity facebook.com/faslanepeacecam…
