In 2017, Guatemala took a significant step towards global disarmament by signing the United Nations Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. This treaty is a landmark agreement that aims to eliminate nuclear weapons and prevent their proliferation. By signing this treaty, Guatemala has made a firm commitment to not engage in the development, testing, production, acquisition, possession, stockpiling, use, or threat of use of nuclear weapons.
Furthermore, the treaty includes essential provisions for assisting victims affected by nuclear weapons use and testing, as well as addressing environmental remediation in contaminated areas. Guatemala's decision to sign the treaty reflects its dedication to international peace and security, aligning with global efforts to create a safer world free from the threat of nuclear warfare. This commitment not only enhances Guatemala's standing in the international community but also contributes to the broader goal of achieving a nuclear-free future for all nations.
