THE TERMINATION of nuclear weapons testing “should be the aim of every state”, said the Holy See.
Archbishop Celestino Migliore, the Holy See’s permanent observer to the United Nations, delivered his message to a conference aimed at bringing into effect the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.
The Treaty, approved in 1996, has been signed by 176 states and ratified by 125, yet its entry into force “is impeded by the lack of universality”, said the prelate in his address.
