Public Domain by Schuminweb
| In 2017 the UN decided to prohibit nuclear weapons world wide, 90 days after the treaty would be ratified by 50 nations. Yesterday, 24 October 2020, Honduras ratified the treaty as the 50th nation. Although the nuclear powers have not signed they will soon be legally obliged to take steps towards putting all their nuclear weapons beyond use. |
