News:\u00a0<\/strong>Five permanent\u00a0 United Nations Security Council<\/a> (P5) members have pledged to avoid the ongoing arms race and to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n

What is the pledge made by P5 members on nuclear proliferation?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>P5 members emphasized on:<\/p>\n

– Adopting bilateral and multilateral diplomatic approaches<\/strong> to avoid military confrontations and to increase mutual understanding and confidence.<\/p>\n

How could world countries avoid nuclear proliferation?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

According to UN Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres, the following approaches need to be adopted:<\/p>\n

First,\u00a0<\/strong>member states should move towards nuclear disarmament.<\/p>\n

Second,\u00a0<\/strong>Countries should adopt new measures of \u201ctransparency and dialogue.”<\/p>\n

Third,\u00a0<\/strong>Member states should address the boiling nuclear crises in the Middle East and Asia.<\/p>\n

Fourth,\u00a0<\/strong>Countries should strengthen the existing global bodies that support non-proliferation, including the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fifth, <\/strong>Member states should promote the peaceful use of nuclear technology<\/p>\n

Last,\u00a0<\/strong>Member states should remind \u201cthe world\u2019s people \u2013 and especially the young ones \u2013 that eliminating nuclear weapons is the only way to guarantee that it will never be used.<\/p>\n

Why maintaining world peace is important?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

According to Gandhiji, the <\/strong>Right to peace<\/strong> is an essential framework for all human rights and to maintain it is the work of everyone, regardless of vocation, profession, or discipline.<\/p>\n

Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr,\u00a0<\/strong>called \u201ceducation in the obvious\u201d precisely peace education<\/strong>. This is required at multiple levels, ranging across the planetary, global, supranational, regional, national, and local levels of social cognition and action. As these spheres are intensely related, critical and transformative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UN Resolution 39\/11<\/strong> also proclaims that the peoples of our planet have a “sacred right to peace<\/strong>\u201d and declares that the \u201cpreservation of the right of peoples to peace and the promotion of its implementation constitute a fundamental obligation of each State.<\/p>\n

UN Resolution 53\/243 B<\/strong>, declared a programme of action for a culture of peace<\/strong> (1999). It owes a great deal to Gandhi\u2019s legacy and mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
