The press release is to be faxed to Australian media and overseas stringers tonight in Sydney, and on Fri 2 in Santa Barbara. (Includes press release, cover letter to Clinton, Putin, and their secretaries /ministers for defence and foreign affairs, and final full text with all signatories for the Moscow Summit START-III/ABM letter) [PRESS RELEASE ISSUED EVENING FRIDAY 2 SYDNEY TIME FOR SATURDAY 3] EMBARGOED TO SAT. 3 JUNE ABOLITION 2000 AUSTRALIAN PEACE COMMITTEE =46RIENDS OF THE EARTH AUSTRALIA WORLD ANTI - N - WEAPONS GROUPS CHALLENGE CLINTON AND PUTIN 'HOW LOW CAN YOU GO?' IN START-III MOSCOW TALKS Anti - Nuke weapons groups and parliamentarians worldwide have challenged Presidents Putin and Clinton, in START-III and ABM-related talks scheduled to commence in Moscow tomorrow, to go for the lowest possible warhead numbers, to take nuclear weapons off hairtrigger alert, and to scrap the proposed US NMD system, in the light of the recent review conference of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. The letter bears the signatures of 162 NGOs worldwide including the International Peace Bureau, the World Court Project, CND-UK, Womens International League for Peace and Freedom,(WILPF), International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War(IPPNW), the Centre for defence Information, Global Resource and Action Centre for the Environment, Tri Valley CAREs, Nuclear Age Peace Foundation, and Abolition-2000,(itself composed of 2000 groups worldwide dedicated to the abolition of nuclear weapons). It has been signed by 29 parliamentarians including a number of members of the European Parliament, and 17 Australian parliamentarians. According to Irene Gale of the Australian Peace Committee and letter coordinator John Hallam, of Friends of the Earth Australia, "The recent Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty Review Conference at the UN, concluded with a final declaration that was signed on to by the nuclear weapons states - which includes the US and Russia - in which they agreed to the unequivocal and total elimination of nuclear weapons. Immense pressure has been brought to bear by the rest of the world on the nuclear weapons powers to fulfill their legal obligations under article VI of the NPT to eliminate their nuclear arsenals. The US has been told by everyone from the Russians and the Chinese to NATO not to deploy an NMD system. Presidents Clinton and Putin must go into these talks in Moscow with this in mind, not thinking how best to satisfy domestic weapons lobbies. They have no legal option under the recent final declaration from the NPT review, but to negotiate the very lowest possible warhead totals, and to proceed from there in a smooth process with the other nuclear weapons powers to eliminate nuclear weapons altogether."

Your two countries bear a unique responsibility for the security of the world, as you possess by far the largest share of the world's nuclear weapons. The overwhelming majority of the world's governments and peoples are not content to see nuclear weapons retained indefinitely by your two nations (or by the UK, France, China, Israel, India or Pakistan). This has been shown repeatedly in UN resolutions calling for the elimination of nuclear weapons, and opinion polls supporting the immediate start of negotiations for a nuclear weapons convention. Support for a nuclear weapons convention is widespread in many quarters and cannot be dismissed. Measures discussed at the NPT Review Conference which should form a basis for your Moscow discussions include: (1) Unequivocal and Total Elimination The 1996 Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice, the judiciary body of the United Nations, and the world's highest legal authority, reaffirming the need to eliminate nuclear weapons in its interpretation of Article VI of the NPT, unanimously stated: "There exists an obligation to pursue in good faith and bring to a conclusion negotiations leading to nuclear disarmament in all its aspects under strict and effective international control." In the final declaration of the NPT Review, the NWS made an 'unequivocal undertaking' to 'accomplish the total elimination of their nuclear arsenals'. This position however, represents a bare minimum. The reality is that the peoples and nations of the world want decisive action to eliminate nuclear weapons, and they will expect your Moscow discussions to reflect this new undertaking and to demonstrate evidence of your compliance with it. (2) Take US and Russian Nuclear Forces off 'Launch-on-Warning' Status. The final declaration of the NPT Review Conference contains a commitment to take 'concrete steps to reduce the operational status of nuclear weapons'. We therefore urge that both the US and Russia agree immediately to take nuclear weapons off 'launch-on-warning' status. The idea of an entirely accidental nuclear war, which 'launch-on-warning' makes possible, must be intolerable to you, yet it has nearly occurred on a number of documented occasions. Evidently the US and Russian military were sufficiently concerned about this last year to establish a joint 'Center for Y2K Strategic Stability'. With such mutual verification of early warning information achieved between them, it should be possible to extend this to monitoring de-alerting of their nuclear forces. Removing nuclear weapons systems from launch-on-warning status would be the single most responsible and important step that you could both take in Moscow toward the complete elimination of nuclear weapons. (3)Implementation of START-II The final declaration of the NPT Review Conference contains a commitment to the implementation of START-II. This is highly uncertain due to US Senate opposition to the 1997 ABM (Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty) protocols. Consequently, both sides should agree to unilateral reciprocal measures to reduce their deployed strategic nuclear arsenals below START-1 levels in accordance with START-1 verification procedures. (4)START-III The NPT Review conference has urged both of you to conclude START-III as soon as possible. We therefore further urge you to work together to agree to irreversible, verifiable, reductions to 1000 warheads or below for deployed strategic systems, and in addition to verifiable measures to deactivate and dismantle all remaining tactical nuclear weapons. If your two countries are to satisfy your obligations under Article VI of the NPT, and the wishes of the rest of the world, it is clear that you must join with the other nuclear weapon states in a process that will take your nuclear arsenals down to zero. (5)Preserve and Strengthen the ABM Treaty The final declaration of the NPT Review conference refers to the 'preserving and strengthening' of the ABM treaty. This and the NWS statement at the recent NPT Review Conference on the 'maintenance and strengthening' of the ABM treaty should not be interpreted to mean the treaty's alteration to allow NMD deployment. We strongly urge that the US does not deploy a National Missile Defence (NMD) system, and that it cease efforts to amend the ABM Treaty to allow such a deployment. As indicated by the 'Talking Points', such deployment merely encourages retention of large nuclear arsenals. The UN Secretary-General, New Agenda Coalition, Non-Aligned Movement, European Union, the other NWS and others have all strongly reaffirmed the importance of retaining the ABM Treaty. The deployment of a costly system of unproven and dubious efficacy against a threat that does not yet and may never exist, will serve only to derail the process of nuclear weapons elimination to which both the US and Russia are bound as NPT signatories. The recent NPT Review shows that the whole world wants you to take immediate steps toward the elimination of your nuclear arsenals. Accordingly we urge you in Moscow to make the deepest cuts possible under START-III, and to proceed swiftly from there to the complete elimination of nuclear weapons under strict international control.
