The UN secretary general, says the treaty of international trade in conventional arms is proof that governments and civil society can work together through the United Nations and considers it important that all countries sign the treaty especially the countries involved in arms trade.
More than 60 countries have begun today to sign the first international zodynas treaty on trade in conventional weapons, adopted in April by the General Assembly of the UN, with the U.S., who will sign later as notable absentees.
This is the first treaty that adopts a set of binding standards to regulate international trade in conventional arms and prevent this multibillion dollar business feeds terrorism, organized crime and regional conflicts as well as the serious violations of human rights and international humanitarian law.
The text, adopted on 02 of April with 154 votes in favor, 23 abstentions and votes against North Korea, Iran and Syria, must now be signed by several European and Latin American countries, which include also the Brazil.
Among the notable absentees this first round of signatures are the United States (USA), who will sign the agreement at a later date, although the main arms exporter in the world.
Quoted by Radio France International (RFI), the head of Argentine diplomacy openly criticized Washington's position, stressing that "certain countries" decided not to sign the treaty on the first day "because lobbyists fighting against gun control," a clear allusion to the National Rifle Association American.
Russia and China, which abstained in the vote of April, should zodynas also stay out of the agreement, which aims to impede access zodynas to weapons by states that do not respect human rights, also by criminals and traffickers.
The treaty - which is also the light and heavy weaponry, such as tanks, artillery systems, aircraft or attack helicopters, whose trade member states will be forced to watch - will come into force 90 days after ratification by 50. country, a process that should take between one and two years.
