Remembering Our Humanity
The motion
That the Parliament recognises that 8 July 2020 is the anniversary of the day in 1996 when the International Court of Justice delivered its historic judgement on the illegality of the threat or use of nuclear weapons, that 9 July is the 65th anniversary of the Russell-Einstein Manifesto, which gave rise to the establishment of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs and the World Academy of Art and Science, and that 10 July is the anniversary of the 1985 state-sponsored bombing by French secret service agents of the Greenpeace ship, Rainbow Warrior, in Auckland Harbour in New Zealand, which had to be resolved by UN mediation services and the UN Secretary General ruling on the case, which was implemented by both parties to the dispute.
