Mensonge Français! French Defense Minister re-evaluates nuclear deterrence
Available in English

Mensonge Francais  
PNND France Coordinator, Jean-Marie Collin, holds a copy of "Nucléaire, un mensonge français"
 

He once swam in the waters of Moruroa atoll to ‘prove’ how safe the French nuclear tests were. Now, former Defense Minister Paul Quilès has published a book entitled “Nucléaire, un mensonge français: Réflexions sur le désarmement nucléaire” (Nuclear, a French lie: Reflections on nuclear disarmament) in which he re-examines the assumptions made in France about nuclear deterrence. In doing so, Quilès concludes that the cloak of nuclear deterrence no longer has any validity, and that repeated adherence to nuclear doctrine as a form of security is a lie of monstrous proportions.

Quilès was assisted in his analysis and in writing the book by representatives of Global Zero, Mayors for Peace, and PNND France. In addition to providing analysis debunking nuclear deterrence, PNND France Coordinator Jean-Marie Collin contributed a chapter on the vital role French parliamentarians must take to challenge the status quo and to advance collaborative nuclear disarmament initiatives in bilateral, regional and multilateral forums.

line breakParliamentary conference in Kazakhstan August 2012 – leading by example

  Astana
 
Astana, Kazakhstan

From 27-30 August, parliamentarians from around the world will gather in Astana, Kazakhstan for the 2012 Astana-Semipalatinsk Forum: From a nuclear test ban to a nuclear-weapons-free world. Hosted by the Kazakhstan Parliament and organised by PNND, the forum will build upon the nuclear disarmament experience and inspiration of Kazakhstan in order to shape parliamentary action and build political momentum to achieve the global abolition of nuclear weapons.

Kazakhstan, under the continuing leadership of President Nazarbayev, closed down the Soviet nuclear test-site on their territory in 1991, facilitated the withdrawal of over 1500 nuclear weapons deployed on its territory following the collapse of the USSR, negotiated with its neighbours to establish a Central Asian Nuclear Weapon Free Zone, sponsored the UN resolution which established the International Day to End Nuclear Tests, and in 2011 launched an international effort to achieve a nuclear-weapon-free world (See the Astana Declaration for a Nuclear Weapon-Free World).

The three-day Forum, to be opened by President Nazarbayev, will include a trip to the former nuclear test site in Semipalatinsk and the Kazakhstan Radiation Research Centre, along with discussions on key nuclear disarmament issues followed by the PNND annual assembly. For more information contact alyn@pnnd.org.

We express our concerns and thoughts for our members, friends and colleagues in Japan in the wake of the disastrous earthquake and tsunami. We express our condolences for all those who have lost their lives, our sympathies for all those injured and our best wishes for the rescue, recovery and rebuilding efforts over the next few days, weeks and months.

We pray that no further lives are lost, and that there is no additional destruction or threats to lives from after-shocks or other damage. We sincerely hope that authorities are able to control the situation in the damaged nuclear power facilities, and we express our admiration for the bravery of those working in the dangerous radioactive environment in the facilities in order to minimize the danger to human health and the environment from further radioactive releases.

Nukes, climate change and the Arctic – new Cold War or a NWFZ?

Admiral James G Stavridis, Supreme Allied Commander for Europe - one of NATO’s most senior commanders, recently warned that global warming and a race for resources could lead to conflict in the Arctic – possibly a new Cold War. (See Climate change could lead to Arctic conflict, warns senior NATO commander, The Guardian, 11 October)

Stavridis made his views known in a foreword to a Whitehall paper, entitled Environmental security in the Arctic Ocean: promoting co-operation and preventing conflict, written by Prof Paul Berkman, head of the Arctic Ocean geopolitics programme at the University of Cambridge. Berkman notes that "Strategic long-range ballistic missiles or other such military assets for national security purposes in the Arctic Ocean are no less dangerous today than they were during the cold war. In effect, the cold war never ended in the Arctic Ocean."

PNND Special Representative Romeo Dallaire joined other Canadian arms control experts (Adele Buckley, Erika Simpson and Mike Wallace) in September calling for innovative co-operation to ensure a peaceful future in the Arctic including establishment of an Arctic Nuclear Weapon Free Zone. (See A nuclear-weapon-free zone in the Arctic, The Embassy, 15 September).

PNND has collaborated with Pugwash Canada and Pugwash Denmark on a number of meetings and conferences to explore the possibilities of establishing such a zone.

Alyn Ware and President de Klerk co-chair the PNND roundtable at the Nobel Summit
 
   

In a joint declaration released on 12 November, Nobel Peace laureates meeting in Hiroshima paid tribute to the atomic bomb survivors who have dedicated their lives to the campaign for nuclear disarmament, and called for a universal treaty to abolish nuclear weapons. The Dalai Lama, Mairead Corrigan Maguire, Fredrik de Klerk, Jody Williams, Shirin Ebadi and a number of Nobel Laureate organizations (see Summit Participants) declared that “Nuclear weapons cannot be dis-invented, but they can and must be outlawed, just as chemical and biological weapons, landmines and cluster munitions have been declared illegal.”

Ambassador Boniface Chidyausiku

On 12 May PNND Global Coordinator Alyn Ware presented the Parliamentary Declaration Supporting a Nuclear Weapons Convention to Ambassador Boniface Chidyausiku, Chair of the 2009 NPT Prep Com. The Declaration was released by a cross-party group of European Parliamentarians in July 2008 on the 40th anniversary of the NPT. It calls for implementation of the NPT through negotiations leading to the conclusion of a comprehensive Nuclear Weapons Convention.

Ambassador Chidyausiku agreed with the proposal for a NWC and included this in his first draft of recommendations for the 2010 NPT Review Conference. The 2009 NPT Prep Com was unable to reach consensus agreement on the Chair’s package of draft recommendations. However, Ambassador Chidyausiku expressed hope that the 2010 Review Conference would agree to the NWC proposal leading to its subsequent implementation.

On 8 May PNND hosted a panel of parliamentarians at the NPT Prep Com at the United Nations in New York. The panel outlined parliamentary actions around the world to support the NPT and to encourage governments to act on specific measures including:

 

  • Ratification and Entry-into-force of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty
  • Commencing negotiations on a fissile materials treaty;
  • Reducing the operational readiness to use nuclear weapons;
  • Reducing nuclear weapons stockpiles
  • Establishing Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zones
  • Commencing deliberations and negotiations on a nuclear weapons convention to bring in States outside the NPT into a disarmament process that would lead to the abolition and elimination of all nuclear weapons.

PNND Conveys Condolences to Nagasaki over Death of Mayor Itoh

The Parliamentary Network for Nuclear Disarmament (PNND) is tremendously shocked and saddened by the tragic murder of Nagasaki Mayor Iccho Itoh on April 17. Mayor Itoh was a long-time peace and anti-nuclear advocate with whom PNND has had a very close and collaborative relationship. He was President of the Japanese Association of Nuclear Free Local Authorities and the Vice-President of Mayors for Peace, an international movement of over 1600 cities calling for the abolition of nuclear weapons.

Nagasaki Mayor Iccho Itoh in October 2006 at unveiling of a Peace Sculpture from New Zealand, with Alyn Ware (PNND Global Coordinator), Barbara August (Christchurch City), Hon Phil Goff (PNND member and the New Zealand Minister for Disarmament), HE Mr John McArthur (New Zealand Ambassador to Japan) and Dr Kate Dewes (Peace Foundation).


PNND worked with Mayor Itoh and Mayors for Peace on a number of initiatives including the Nagasaki Assemblies for Nuclear Abolition and the Mayors and Parliamentarians Appeal for a Nuclear Weapons Free World.

Mayor Itoh was a very dedicated and effective leader, who worked locally, nationally and internationally to promote an end to these inhumane weapons of mass destruction. In this he represented not only the people of Nagasaki, including the survivors and families of the victims from the nuclear bombing of his city in 1945, but he also represented all people in this world now, and for future generations.

We remember Mayor Itoh fondly and will continue to pursue the dream he shared with us of a world free from the threat of nuclear weapons.

Senator Emeritus Douglas Roche O.C.
Chair of PNND Global Council



Parliamentarians respond to North Korean nuclear test announcement

Parliamentarians from North East Asia and around the world are responding to the shock announcement on October 9 by the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea ( North Korea or DPRK) that they had tested a nuclear weapon. The Japanese parliament adopted a unanimous resolution (日本語) condemning the nuclear test and installing a broad spectrum of economic and travel sanctions to the DPRK. The Speaker of the South Korean parliament toured Europe in late October to discuss ways to resolve the North Korean nuclear issue.

PNND has invited legislators globally to endorse a parliamentary statement which will be delivered to the leaders and chief negotiators of the countries involved in the Six Party talks - China , DPRK, Japan, Republic of Korea , Russia and the United States. The statement will also be sent to United Nations ambassadors as all members of the UN are required to implement Security Council Resolution 1718 adopted on October 14 condemning the nuclear test proclaimed by the DPRK.
