The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty has underpinned a decades-long global norm against nuclear testing that benefits all states. It’s in every state’s interest to maintain it. That was my message at today's CTBT meeting at the UN as we push for the Treaty’s entry into force

At UN #PAROS talks, Australia promoted a practical approach to space security that recognises existing international law and supports responsible behaviours in outer space.
Australia is committed to multilateral efforts to keep space safe and secure for all.

The Australia Group’s role in in fighting the spread of chemical and biological weapons is more important than ever. Pleased to promote the AG to regional partners last week at the #PSI meeting and the benefits states enjoy through unilateral adherence or participation in the AG
Western Hemisphere cooperation through #PSI was on display in Buenos Aires last week where officials discussed proliferation threats, interdictions, maritime awareness, proliferation financing, cargo handling, ship boarding and participated in a lively table top exercise.

Excellent meeting with Mathew Fox of @dfat to discuss our shared commitment to delivering tangible development benefits through the peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology.
I am grateful to Australia 🇦🇺 for its generous financial contributions to the @IAEAorg, helping countries strengthen cancer care, food security, nuclear safety, scientific cooperation and water management across the Indo-Pacific and beyond through initiatives including #RaysOfHope and #Atoms4Food.

Australia 🇦🇺 is pleased to chair #BMS9.
Illicit small arms continue to drive global conflict, crime and human suffering worldwide. This week, we will work with States to translate commitment into urgently-needed impact.

Four weeks of in-depth discussions at the 11th Review Conference of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty allowed for a thorough review of the three pillars of the NPT, and the affirmation of the vital role of the @iaeaorg in supporting the implementation of the Treaty.
Despite the lack of a final outcome document, the NPT and IAEA continue to serve global peace and development by preventing the spread of nuclear weapons and enabling peaceful uses of nuclear energy. The significance of the NPT is not defined by the absence of an agreement on a Final Declaration.
I applaud the tireless efforts of Ambassador @dohungviet of 🇻🇳.
The IAEA will not stop for a single minute in advancing these objectives!
Ambassador - Arms Control & Counter-Proliferation retweeted
In this third week of the #NPTRevCon, as we work to build consensus on a final outcome, let us bring the best of diplomacy to bear.
Pressure won’t help. Engagement will. Blaming won’t help. Understanding will. Threat won’t help. Flexibility will.
Let’s get in done, together!

“Before the #NPT treaty was agreed, it was predicted that there would be >30 nuclear weapon states. That didn’t happen because of the NPT”
@INakamitsu explains why the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conf. is critical for nuclear disarmament ☢️

My message to the upcoming NPT Review Conference:
“The diplomatic path is demanding, often frustrating, and rarely produces the dramatic breakthroughs that capture headlines, but it remains the only path that does not court catastrophe.”

Without the #NPT, the world would be a more dangerous and unpredictable place.
Our responsibility is clear.
We must protect the Treaty, we must strengthen it, and we must ensure it continues to deliver in a very different world from the one in which it was negotiated.
Ambassador - Arms Control & Counter-Proliferation retweeted
30 years on, the #CTBT’s mission matters more than ever.
At #NPTRevCon, the #CTBTO brought States Signatories together for a side event, "NPT & CTBT: Galvanizing Action” to keep the global ban on nuclear test explosions moving forward.
