Nuclear Free Conference
Nuclear Free Conference.
In April of last year, in Suva, Fiji, 93 delegates representing 20 Pacific peoples gathered for a conference for a Nuclear Free Pacific.
The main work of the conference was to launch a campaign for the establishment of a nuclear free zone in the central and South Pacific. This proposal has since been overwhelmingly endorsed by the U.N. General Assembly, derided by our National Government, actively supported by people throughout the pacific region, and declared unworkable by the Soviet Union.
