Statement by Sir Joseph Rotblat in support of
The Global Nuclear Disarmament Fund

For sixty years I have worked for the abolition of nuclear weapons. During this time popular movements have time and again mobilized great numbers of people against nuclear weapons. These movements were able, in 1963, to stop the atmospheric tests of nuclear weapons which were poisoning our planet, and have caused the deaths by cancer of millions of humans. In almost all countries of the world a large majority of people support the total abolition of nuclear weapons. There have been no effective ways for people to express this desire for a world free from the threat of nuclear war. Now, in the Global Nuclear Disarmament Fund, we see for the first time artists and the general public across the globe working for the dismantling of nuclear weapons. Every one of us can, through this campaign, contribute to this great goal. Popular music today is universal and has a special way of reaching the hearts and minds of young people. My hope is that the appeal from the artists in this campaign, through the medium of music, will make it unthinkable for anyone to explode a nuclear weapon. This campaign continues with new ideas and a new spirit the work to which I have dedicated my life.
