El Secretario General de las Naciones Unidas, António Guterres, acogió con satisfacción la declaración conjunta hecha el lunes por cinco Estados con armas nucleares sobre la prevención de la guerra nuclear y la importancia de evitar la carrera armamentista.

Los líderes de China, Francia, Rusia, Reino Unido y Estados Unidos emitieron por primera vez en la historia un comunicado que habla de evadir una carrera armamentista y no atacarse unos a otros ni a ningún otro Estado.

Los cinco países, también miembros permanentes del Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU, aseveraron creer firmemente que se debe prevenir una mayor propagación de ese tipo de armas.

En un comunicado de su portavoz, el Secretario General agradeció el reconocimiento de la necesidad de cumplir con los acuerdos y compromisos bilaterales y multilaterales de no proliferación, desarme y control de armamentos.

Guterres destacó además las obligaciones de los Estados relacionadas con el desarme nuclear en virtud del Tratado de No Proliferación de Armas Nucleares.


Joint Statement of the Leaders of the Five Nuclear-Weapon States on Preventing Nuclear War and Avoiding Arms Races
JANUARY 03, 2022•STATEMENTS AND RELEASES

The People’s Republic of China, the French Republic, the Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the United States of America consider the avoidance of war between Nuclear-Weapon States and the reduction of strategic risks as our foremost responsibilities.

We affirm that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.  As nuclear use would have far-reaching consequences, we also affirm that nuclear weapons—for as long as they continue to exist—should serve defensive purposes, deter aggression, and prevent war.  We believe strongly that the further spread of such weapons must be prevented.

We reaffirm the importance of addressing nuclear threats and emphasize the importance of preserving and complying with our bilateral and multilateral non-proliferation, disarmament, and arms control agreements and commitments.  We remain committed to our Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) obligations, including our Article VI obligation “to pursue negotiations in good faith on effective measures relating to cessation of the nuclear arms race at an early date and to nuclear disarmament, and on a treaty on general and complete disarmament under strict and effective international control.”

We each intend to maintain and further strengthen our national measures to prevent unauthorized or unintended use of nuclear weapons.  We reiterate the validity of our previous statements on de-targeting, reaffirming that none of our nuclear weapons are targeted at each other or at any other State.

We underline our desire to work with all states to create a security environment more conducive to progress on disarmament with the ultimate goal of a world without nuclear weapons with undiminished security for all.  We intend to continue seeking bilateral and multilateral diplomatic approaches to avoid military confrontations, strengthen stability and predictability, increase mutual understanding and confidence, and prevent an arms race that would benefit none and endanger all.  We are resolved to pursue constructive dialogue with mutual respect and acknowledgment of each other’s security interests and concerns.
