 ternational Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons
DESCRIPTION:Conférence de Seth Shelden\, avocat\, professeur au CUNY Schoo
 l of Law\, membre de ICAN (Prix Nobel de la Paix 2017).
\nRésumé«None o
 f the nuclear states were in the room\, but it was the best success we cou
 ld have asked for»\, said Mr. Shelden of the treaty vote. The nine nation
 s known or strongly suspected of possessing nuclear weapons are the U.S.\,
  Russia\, China\, France\, the United Kingdom\, India\, Pakistan\, Israel\
 , and recently\, North Korea. There are more than 16 000 nuclear weapons i
 n the world\, with 90 percent of them held by the U.S. and Russia.
\nDespi
 te the absence of those powers\, Norway’s Nobel Committee announced on O
 ctober 6 that ICAN would receive the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize
\n«(ICAN) is 
 receiving the award for its work to draw attention to the catastrophic hum
 anitarian consequences of any use of nuclear weapons\, and for its ground-
 breaking efforts to achieve a treaty-based prohibition of such weapons»\,
  read a statement by the Committee.
