Dear Friend
--
I hope you and your loved
ones are doing ok in these difficult times.
I wanted to share
a bit of good news, on Tuesday afternoon in New York City, despite the
lockdown of the United Nations Office for Legal Affairs, Belize
ratified the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. We’ve seen
a lot of exciting progress from the Caribbean, as a result from hard
work by our partner organisations in that region and from the
Caribbean regional conference we organized last year. It’s exciting to
see that our activities are having a concrete impact, and you can read
more about Belize’s ratification here.
This
means that 37 states have ratified, and we’re only 13 more away from
the Treaty entering into force and becoming international
law.
Do you know how your country
is doing? Check out our country
pages where you can find more information about what your
country’s position on the Treaty is, recent news stories related to
our work, which elected representatives and cities from your country
support the ban treaty, and which ICAN partner organisations exists in
that country.
Thank you again for your continued support
for our work, and we’re excited to get the next 13 states
onboard.
With best regards,
Beatrice Fihn
Executive Director
It’s time to end nuclear
weapons.
