The 189 countries that adhere to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) today approved a plan aimed at reducing the global nuclear threat in the final declaration of the treaty review conference held in UN headquarters in New York.
.
NPT nations reached a consensus after de intensas negociaciones durante un mes y aprobaron un texto, de 28 páginas, que contiene el plan que apunta a avanzar hacia la prohibición de armas nucleares en el Medio Oriente.
Se trata de una propuesta árabe que busca presionar a Israel para que renuncie a un arsenal de ojivas. Además, se establece la celebración de una conferencia en 2012 en Medio Oriente para debatir la eliminación total de armas nucleares en la región.
En el texto, de 28 páginas, los 189 pasíses del TNP piden que Israel adhiera a ese tratado.
Tras conocerse la aporbación del texto, Estados Unidos dijo que "lamenta profundamente" que Israel se haya destacado en la declaración final del TNP por no have signed a pact.
U.S. Under Secretary of State, Ellen Tauscher, said he would work with the countries of the region to organize a successful conference on the creation of a zone free of weapons of mass destruction in the Middle East.
But he said Washington's ability to do so "has been seriously threatened because the final document (approved by the signatories of the treaty) singles out Israel in the Middle East section, a fact that the United States deeply regrets."
For its part, Egypt's ambassador to the UN, Maged Abdelaziz, said on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) that the document demonstrated the "maximum flexibility "offered by the NAM to reach an agreement and avoid the failure of the previous review conference in 2005, when it could not reach any consensus.
Abdelaziz said that although many elements proposed by the Non-Aligned were not accepted had made "progress" to adopt an "action plan" to eliminate nuclear weapons in the Middle East.
"Something", he said, "that today would not have been possible without the commitment of all States Parties and their dedication to pursuing this goal. "
