TPNW- A living document from July 7, 2017

    
     
     January 22 marks the fourth "banniversary" of the TPNW, the United Nations Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, entering into force in 2021.
It means we have a legally binding international treaty and a structure for the world to rid itself of nuclear weapons.
     There are currently 94 countries that have signed and ratified the treaty, and 73 states parties that have signed and are in the ratification process.
They will be in attendance for meetings, along with the representatives of those countries that are considering the treaty, and those who are simply
observing the process. And they'll all come together at the United Nations for the third meeting of states parties, March 3-7, 2025. (3MSP)
