As negotiations between the US and Iran continue, IPPNW reiterates our June 2025 call: there is no military solution to the growing risk of nuclear proliferation. Diplomacy and sustained dialogue, leading to the abolition of nuclear weapons is the only path forward.

Help us mark the occasion by celebrating 5 years with 5 reasons you support the Nuclear Ban! #nuclearban
For the last 5 years, the TPNW has become a sign of hope in an otherwise stalled disarmament landscape. In 2026, the TPNW will hold it's first Review Conference looking at the progress and actions of the Treaty. #nuclearban
In 2025, the TPNW reached a new milestone with a global majority of States taking action under the ban by signing or ratifying! The momentum of the Nuclear Ban continues to grow. #nuclearban
At the 2nd and 3rd Meetings for the TPNW, IPPNW's large and active delegations from around the world continued to raise the voices of health professionals with interventions, events, and diplomatic advocacy. @MSSR_Kenya @IPPNWS
IPPNW joined the First Meeting of States Parties along with 84 other Civil Society Organizations and partners of the International Campaign to Abolition Nuclear Weapons (@nuclearban) to promote humanitarian disarmament expertise.
When the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons opened for signature in 2017, the race for the first 50 ratification began, triggering it's entry into international law on January 22nd, 2021. #nuclearban
The Humanitarian Initiative, armed with scientific and medical evidence of the impacts of nuclear weapons, pushed back on the inaction by nuclear-armed states, and pledged to fill the legal gap for the elimination of nuclear weapons. #NPT #TPNW #humanitarianlaw

We can see the destructive nature of US budget priorities in the daily headlines. More money for weapons, more wars, more human devastation. #NoWarYesPeace https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamhartung/2025/12/30/trump-year-one-pentagon-grows-civilian-programs-shrink/
