As a campaigner for the abolition of nuclear weapons, I do not have the hint of elite classes. I will speak in a straightforward manner. Now around 15 thousand nuclear heads of the world are scattered around the world. The rude truth is that the disadvantage of these leaders is to denigrate the power of the leaders of these countries. Let me tell them more clearly from that point of view: Our current leaders are so passionate about the fact that they will be protected by the nuclear weapons reserves, we can not believe it.
Last year, my organization received the International Campaign for Abolition Nuclear Wives Nobel Peace Prize. When I took the award for the organization, I told the Nobel Committee that nuclear weapons were held by men in the hands of madmen, which were kept permanently sheltered in our forehead and that the fingers of crazy people were caught on the finger trigger.
Nuclear weapons have now become a symbol of man's power due to the fact that it is not possible to show up on my side. In recent months, North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un and US President Donald Trump publicly boast about their 'size' button on their (atomic bombs) button. Ignored arms. Russian President Vladimir Putin did not go too low. He assured the countrymen in parliament, they have modern nuclear weapons in all the world.
If this futuristic weapon was only confined to social media, it would have been less anxious. But these three leaders seem interested in making such terrible decisions that the decisions will endanger the lives of ordinary people. For example, recently Trump started a devastating trade war and after meeting with steel executives, the executives were able to convince him that imposing duty is a very good idea for the country. Now what if the North Korea tries to hold a trump meeting with the people who have argued for the nuclear attack and dragging Iran into that war? John Bolton is now the National Security Advisor of Trump!
Who is in power? Women or men? I do not want to stop that argument. But who in control of nuclear weapons is left to be considered. I'm not saying, all men holding power are unstable mentality. There are examples of many prudent and wise male heads in history. But in the present scenario, we see that in the nine nuclear-armed countries of the world, there is only one man in eight countries, except in Britain. Considering the activities of Trump, Putin and Kim among these men, it is said that the planet's nuclear weapons are in the hands of the terrible people.
Instead of blaming these three leaders for making an uncertain rhetoric, instead of pushing all the bias on biology. Maybe they start behaving as if they were hurt by some of their genetic traits or heard of the opponent's threat. Can not control themselves. I would say, it is very difficult for any person to do something against their nature. Only Kim, Trump, and Putin in this argument will be embarrassed or sexually abused. Be careful, it may be a sexy issue, but not gender issues.
Throughout history, many discreet and thoughtful leaders have taken the world to the forefront of nuclear war, and fortunately they have come back from there. I'm not sure whether the warnings that have been able to bring back their past warnings from the past can work on today.
It should be remembered that nuclear weapons can not be left out of dictatorship, dictatorship and democratically elected women or male president's stubbornness or emotion. According to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Society, the destruction of war between nuclear-capable countries will spread to such a way that humanitarian assistance will be impossible to perform.
How can we go ahead with such a risk? One answer: All weapons must be destroyed.
