The G7 goal of a nuclear weapons-free world is increasingly under pressure

The road to a nuclear weapons-free world is becoming increasingly rocky a year after Group of Seven leaders adopted a landmark document on nuclear disarmament.

On May 19, 2023, the first day of the three-day G7 summit in the city of Hiroshima, the leaders of Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United States plus the European Union adopted the Hiroshima Vision on nuclear energy accepted. Disarmament, affirming their โ€œcommitment to the ultimate goal of a world without nuclear weapons.โ€

Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, who hosted the summit, continues to call for the vision to be realized. But momentum for nuclear disarmament has not increased, in part because Russia has threatened to use nuclear weapons in its military aggression against Ukraine.
