New York, Nov 2, IRNA – Iran’s UN representative delegation presented a draft resolution a in recent UN Disarmament Committee meeting that was approved by 113 positive and seven abstained votes despite opposition of US, Zionist regime and number of western countries. The resolution was on need for following up the implementation of their accepted commitments in the framework of revision conferences of member states of the Mon-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in years 1995, 2000 and 2010 that had been presented by Iran for the sixth time during past 10 years. The resolution asks the countries with nuclear arsenals to accelerate the execution of their commitments on full abolishment of their atomic arsenals observing the principles of transparency, and yielding to irreversible and international supervision. According to the NPT, all countries with nuclear arsenals have accepted the commitment to abolish their entire weapons, to refrain from producing more weapons, not to transfer them to the other states, not to cooperate with other countries to produce nuclear arsenals and do not deploy them out of their territories. Iran’s proposed resolution has underlined in a part that the implementation of the UNGS resolution of 1995 conference concerning creation of a Middle East free from nuclear weapons still needs to be implemented. The 1995 resolution concerning the Nuclear-Free Middle East Zone, calls on the Zionist regime to join the NPT and the IAEA and yeiled to their supervisions of its nuclear installations. The part played by Iran in proposing the resolution caused the negative votes of the western countries, including USA, Britain, France and the Zionist regime. It was also underlined in the approved resolution that it is necessary to present security guarantees to the non-atomic countries that they will not be threatened by nuclear armed countries./end
