Kathleen Lawand is the Head of Arms Unit at the International Committee of the Red Cross.  Kathleen represented the ICRC at several conferences and delivered many statements during the process of achieving the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.
We asked Kathleen about the emergency response given on the ground in Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the bombs dropped, the evidence presented by the ICRC at the Humanitarian Consequences conferences in 2013 and 2014 and what the ICRC is doing to facilitate entry into force of the new Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.
