Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons

El Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW, for its acronym in English), is a historic international agreement.

The 7 of 2017 in July was adopted at the United Nations.

Before being approved, nuclear weapons were the only weapons of mass destruction not subject to a comprehensive ban.

All in spite of its catastrophic, widespread and persistent humanitarian and environmental consequences that entails its use.

This new agreement fills a significant gap in international law.
