UN General Assembly
1967

155. The USSR Government proposes that every State signing the convention should undertake to refrain from using nuclear weapons, from threatening to use them and from inciting other States to use them. 156. It also proposes that every State party to the convention should undertake to make every effort to arrive as soon as possible at agreement on the cessation of production and the destruction of all stockpiles of nuclear weapons in conformity with a treaty on general and complete disarmament under effective international control. 157. These are the key provisions of the draft convention which the USSR Government is submitting for the attention of all States Members of the United Nations. The gist of them may be expressed more briefly still: the Soviet Union proposes that nuclear weapons should be abandoned politically and that a further effort should be made to scrap them physically.
