Die Staaten, die im Namen der Abrüstung in den Krieg gegen den Irak gezogen sind, müssen verbindliche Schritte zu einer echten Abrüstung tun. Das heisst, dass sie ihre rechtlichen Verpflichtungen in diesem Bereich erfüllen. Greenpeace-Aktivisten, verkleidet als «Inspektoren» haben eine Parade von Raketenattrappen vor dem UNO Hauptgebäude aufgehalten und zerstört. Die Raketen waren mit Flaggen der fünf offiziellen Nuklearmächte (USA, Russland, Grossbritannien, Frankreich und China), wie auch von Israel, Indien und Pakistan versehen.Locations:Alpine Countries-Europe, East Europe, Alpine Countries-Geneva-SwitzerlandDate:28 Apr, 2003Credit:© Greenpeace / Ex-Press / David AdairMaximum size:1920px X 2560pxRestrictions:Images ok for use in all Greenpeace campaigns, products and brochures.

The states that, in the name of disarmament, participated in the war against Iraq must take steps towards a genuine disarmament. This means that they should carry out their legal obligations. Greenpeace activists dressed as "inspectors" stopped a parade of dummy missiles bearing flags of nuclear weapon states in front of the UN headquarters. The 'missiles' were decorated with flags of the five official nuclear powers (U.S., Russia, Great Britain, France and China), as well as Israel, India and Pakistan.The 'missiles' asked to be eliminated as a step towards nuclear disarmament, the central goal of the 2003 NPT (Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty) Preparatory Committee currently being held in Geneva.
