In the context of revitalizing the role of the Conference on Disarmament, we must recognize that many of the central objectives in the field of disarmament can be achieved at the international level only through negotiations within the Conference, such as negotiations on a nuclear-weapons convention aimed at a total ban on nuclear weapons, with the year 2025 as the appropriate time frame for the realization of a nuclear-weapon-free world through such negotiations, and negotiations on crafting a legally binding international instrument that provides non-nuclearweapon States with unconditional assurances against the use or threat of use of nuclear weapons, pending the realization of nuclear disarmament.
