PHYSICIAN LEADERS WELCOME NEXT STEP IN NUCLEAR TREATY ENFORCEMENT
Dear colleagues,
The coming into force today of the United Nations Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons has been warmly welcomed by the World Medical Association. The treaty now becomes part of international law, binding on the states that ratify it. In a statement, the WMA President Dr. David Barbe said this was an essential step towards the prevention of nuclear war and added ‘Covid-19 has shown the vital need for the world to come together to fight a deadly pandemic. In the same way the world must come together to ban nuclear weapons, which are even more deadly’.
