While Pyongyang ramps up tensions on the Korean peninsula with nuclear and missile tests and the US considers returning tactical nuclear weapons to South Korea, people need to realize the deadly nature a nuclear confrontation poses to all mankind, the co-chair of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons Rebecca Johnson told Sputnik.
The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons was awarded this year’s Nobel Peace Prize for “its work to draw attention to the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of any use of nuclear weapons and for its ground-breaking efforts to achieve a treaty-based prohibition of such weapons.”
“The only answer to the danger of nuclear weapons is to eliminate them [in keeping with] a treaty overwhelmingly adopted by the UN General Assembly in July,” Johnson said.
She also underscored the need to raise people’s awareness about the danger posed by nuclear weapons.
