Greenpeace reminds the participants of the conference on the decrease of nuclear weapons of mass destruction of their responsibilities. 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.
