Description

56TH SESSION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY

Does the world have to brace itself for a new arms race? How can we talk about global disarmament at a time of increased military expenditure? The United Nations First Committee, one of the six main General Assembly Committees, is the venue where member countries address issues of disarmament and international security. In this edition of World Chronicle, Andre Erdos, Chairman of the First Committee for the Fifty Six Session of the UN General Assembly and Permanent Representative of Hungary to the United Nations, discusses global disarmament strategies at a time when many countries are actually increasing their military budgets.
