국제평화회의, 국제행동의 날 호소문

지금 군축을 !

오늘날 우리 세계는 지구 온난화, 전쟁, 기아, 질병 등 전례 없는 규모의 재앙에 직면해있다. 우리가 알고 있듯 이러한 재앙은 생명을 위협하고, 이 지구에 살고 있는 대다수의 사람들에게 하루하루 죽음과 슬픔, 고통을 가져다준다. 그러나 이러한 문제들은 거의 전적으로 인간 활동의 결과물이며, 그만큼의 인간의 노력에 의해서만 해결될 수 있다. 우리에겐 전 인류의 요구를 살펴봄으로써 우리가 살고 있는 세계의 부와 천혜의 자원을 관리할 정치적 의지를 계발하고, 평화롭고 정의롭게 살 수 있도록 만들 전에 없는 기회가 있다.

그것은 압도적으로 많은 사람들의 열망이지만, 우리의 현실에선 2008년 현재 총 1조 4천 6백억 달러에 달하는 군비-살인을 위한 돈-가 쓰이고 있다. 게다가 9개의 국가들이 핵무기-전부 23,000개가 넘는 핵탄두-를 보유하고 있다. 이러한 압도적인 살상 무기들은 단지 지구를 몇 번이나 파괴할 수 있는 것만이 아니라, 공포를 이용한 정치적인 무기-정당성 없는 지구적 불평등을 강화하는-로 사용되고 있다. 이러한 무기의 근절은 비단 인류 절멸의 위협과 이런 공포의 체계를 끝낼 뿐 아니라, 우리를 비군사화의 길로 이끌어 기후 변화와 대량 빈곤을 다룰 막대한 재원을 드러내주고, 또한 인류가 염원하는 다른 영역에서 진보를 이루게 할 것이다.

1945년 미국의 일본에 대한 범죄적인 원폭투하 이래 수십 년 동안 조약, 국제적 결의안, 규칙들이 있었음에도 불구하고, 핵무기보유국들은 그들이 보유한 무기를 없애는 데 실패했다. 최근 시스템의 현대화와 점점 더 공격적인 핵사용 정책과 함께 이러한 무기의 지속적인 보유는 그러한 무기의 확산과 핵전쟁의 가능성을 점점 높이는 데 기여해왔다.

<핵비확산조약>(NPT)은 비확산과 군축 모두를 요구하는 것이며, 지지하고 강화해야한다-그러나 필수적인 목표를 달성하기 위한 구체적인 절차가 결여되어 있다. 게다가 조약 4조에는 심각한 문제들이 있다. 이것은 평화적인 핵에너지의 권리를 보장하는데, 원자력 발전과 무기 기술의 불가분의 관계와 보건/환경에 필요한 비용을 간과하고 있다. 새롭게 출발한 <국제재생에너지기구>(IRENA)는 조약 4조의 보장(원자력의 평화적 이용)을 대체하여 원자력 발전을 중단할 수 있는 기회를 보여준다. 즉 NPT는 새로운 핵심 계획-대다수의 인류가 매우 시급하게 찾고 있는 핵무기 근절의 시간표-을 발전시킬 틀을 제공하기 위해 지속된다.

2010년 5월에 열리는 NPT 평가회의는 그 구상을 현실화할 귀중한 기회를 제공한다. 그것은 무슨 이유로도 놓칠 수 없는 기회다. 부시 시절 침략이 급증한 이후 오바마 정부는 우리 캠페인에 새로운 맥락을 제공한다. 오바마 대통령이 러시아 메드베데프 대통령과 함께 한 지구적 핵무기 근절의 약속은 매우 환영할 만하고, 상호 군축을 향한 첫 단계와 핵 개발을 제한하는 조약들에 대한 지지는 긍정적이다. 그러나 세계적 폐지라는 목표는 무작정 연기될 수 없으며, 반드시 규정된 시간동안, 실현 가능하고 예정된 절차가 우리를 위협하는 확산을 멈출 수 있다.

이를 위해, 인류와 지구의 미래를 보장하기 위해, 평화롭고 정의로운 세계와 진정한 인류의 안보 조건을 만드는 것을 돕기 위해, 우리는 2010 NPT 평가회의가 모든 핵무기의 폐기 시한을 정하는 조약, <핵무기협정>의 협상을 시작하겠다는 것을 분명하게 약속하길 요구한다.

그러한 전진은 핵 절멸의 공포가 없는 세계를 원하는 대다수 인류의 갈망을 전달하는, 시민 사회의 적극적인 참여 없이는 불가능하다. 우리는 이러한 비전을 공유하는 이들이 5월 1일 뉴욕에서 열리는 국제평화회의와 NPT 평가회의에 청원 서명을 전달하게 되는, 5월 2일 뉴욕과 세계에서 진행될 핵 없는 세계를 향한 국제 행동의 날을 조직하는 데에 함께 하길 요구한다.
