The second nuclear test by North Korea in May 2009 has alerted the world community and has created a situation that negatively affects peace and stability in Southeast Asia. The underground explosion in North Korea was higher than the first trial of 2006, an earthquake measuring 4.52 degrees on the Richter scale, a fact that was cataloged as a response to North Korean military threat and economic sanctions imposed by the U.S., Japan and Russia and South Korea. The objective fact is that it reinforces the status-nuclear North Korea, which is a key weapon to perpetuate the current political regime and military dominance in the region.
Currently it is estimated that the world has between 25,000 and 30,000 nuclear weapons, 97% of them in American and Russian hands and the rest divided among China, France and the United Kingdom, countries that make up the Security Council of the United Nations and Pakistan, India and North Korea that nuclear weapons have been in breach of Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
The North Korean situation is out of control of international organizations who do not know the nuclear inventory or have alternative courses to promote disarmament in the short term. This brings the problem of being located in a Communist government's decision a potential nuclear war and the indiscriminate extermination of persons and damage to environmental assets.
For example, it is estimated that India can have about 65 nuclear warheads and fifty other neighboring Pakistan, being enough the use of 1% of that arsenal to cause damage to the climate change of disastrous proportions, even when not in use assume a risk to public health and the environment, coupled with the constant threat of terrorist organizations to acquire nuclear material.
We make a criticism of North Korea and all countries that have made the decision to arm nuclear weapons have not been transparent view to the world community, including Iran and Israel, since no country has the ethical justification for developing nuclear weapon capability and less Indiscriminate testing. These actions are unacceptable and deserve the rejection of all people even if they imply a waste of resources to be earmarked for the basic needs of the population with fewer resources than those countries.
This material may not be a double standard, we believe that members of the Security Council of the United Nations can not continue to enjoy nuclear oligopoly in the shadow of a Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty which manifests itself as a mere tool to serve of their privileges, are precisely those states who should promote a global treaty to slow development programs should be nuclear weapon capability as an example.
A world without nuclear weapons is not only a progressive vision but is deeply linked to the interests of the world, is a cause that reinforces the ethos of the overall policy of putting the interests of the people, the international community and sustainable development the environment, over the selfish ambitions of political power and war countries.
A progressive policy in short is the imperative to articulate a strategy for nuclear disarmament and the Comprehensive Test Ban, development, production and use of nuclear weapons and nuclear waste disposal throughout the world, and renunciation of civil use .
