Effective nuclear disarmament verification measures are conducive to enhancing mutual trust among the contracting parties of nuclear disarmament treaties and are important guarantee for the complete prohibition and thorough destruction of nuclear weapons. The promotion of nuclear disarmament verification should balance the issues of credibility and sensitive information protection, prevent nuclear proliferation risks, and specific verification measures should be negotiated and agreed upon by relevant parties. The form and method of verification stipulated in any specific agreement depend on the purpose, scope and nature of the agreement. Support the research on nuclear disarmament verification under the UN framework, with a focus on exploring the feasible measures for nuclear disarmament verification, and provide technical support for the future development of international nuclear disarmament.

Strengthen nuclear disarmament education and enhance public awareness of the importance of achieving the goal of a world free of nuclear-weapons. Build on a comprehensive and objective understanding of history, help the younger generation to accurately understand the humanitarian disasters brought by war and enhance their belief in opposing war and the use of nuclear weapons.

3. Nuclear Non-Proliferation

Persist in peacefully resolving regional nuclear issues through political and diplomatic means. Oppose the wrong practice of double standards, the indiscriminate imposition of illegal unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction, and even the threat of resorting to force. Oppose undermining international treaties and arrangements in the field of nuclear non-proliferation, and oppose placing geopolitics above nuclear non-proliferation.

Implement NPT obligations in a comprehensive, faithful and balanced manner. Support the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in fulfilling its safeguard mandate in a fair, objective and impartial manner. Promote the universality of the IAEA comprehensive safeguards agreement, and encourage relevant States to voluntarily join the Additional Protocols. States that have not yet joined the NPT should do so as non-nuclear-weapon States as soon as possible, and place all nuclear facilities under the safeguards of the IAEA.

Adhere to the principles of justice and balance, and properly handle the relationship between nuclear non-proliferation and the peaceful uses of the nuclear energy. While bearing in mind the need to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons, no measures to prevent nuclear proliferation shall impede the legitimate rights of all States to the peaceful uses of nuclear energy and international cooperation in nuclear-related materials, equipment and technologies for peaceful purposes. At the same time, no proliferation activities shall be carried out under the pretext of the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. Attention should be paid to the imbalance between supply and demand of nuclear materials in certain countries, and effective measures should be taken to correct it.
