US POLICY ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS

Motion Text

That this House notes with grave concern reports of US plans to build new nuclear weapons that would be suitable first strikes against China, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Russia and Syria; deplores further reports that the US would be willing to use nuclear weapons in several scenarios, including an Arab-Israeli conflict, a war between China and Taiwan, an attack by North Korea on South Korea and an attack on Iraq by Israel or another country in the event of a surprising military development; regrets that the US is deliberately undermining international peace and security; and urges Her Majesty's Government to send a clear message to the US that they are opposed to these plans and demand that the US abandons them.
