 Republic of Seychelles ratified the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) on 9 July as the 55th honorable nation. Nuclear weapons are illegal now, but it does not mean an end of the movement. Rather the beginning of the end, a world without nuclear weapons.

      My mentor said: "our ability to respect others is the true mark of our humanity. Respect for other people is the essence of human rights.".  I think that human rights are essential for us, but it happens that one sometimes disturbs the rights of another person to get one's desires. We judge such cases in law generally, but the law is effective within countries. 

     If a country is criminal, how can we do? If several criminal countries come together, how can we do?  In such a case, we have to unite with countries that share the same value systems and comply with international law. I think that It should be the United Nations, and U. N. resolutions can be cosmopolitan law.

 We know that war brings many evils.

In the novel of The human revolution, my mentor stated as follows: "Nothing is more barbarous than war. Nothing is more cruel.”.

Moreover, in his next novel of The New Human Revolution, he described essentials for us as follows: “Nothing is more precious than peace. Nothing brings more happiness. Peace is the most basic starting point for the advancement of humankind.”.

 Those are necessary essence of our survival, but we have always faced severe and regrettable reality.

Although, we never give up getting world peace and unify the human race. 

We know that war causes by ourselves and within our lives. Namely, we already know all the solutions to war.

 Killer robots have killed us in the world of The Terminator, but that has been the movie of Science Fiction. However, our talent which can select the way to extinction spontaneously is great as unbelievable, because such world becomes real immediately. I seem to praise the historic achievement and clever talents heartily.

Three religious groups expressed a proposal "A PLEA FOR PRESERVING OUR SHARED HUMANITY" on the occasion of the first International Day of Human Fraternity, Feb 4. See the proposal from here (pdf).

They said "An urgent and firm rejection of the development of fully autonomous weapons is essential to preserving our shared humanity." on their proposal. We have such wisdom amazingly other than destructive talents, as mentioned above. I can take hope against the future by the wisdom.

  The first of the beginning of this decade had two big events. Of course, there are the inauguration speech of president Biden on January 20 and the entry into force of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) on January 22, 2021. 
I think whatever may relate between two events. The president said that Democracy and hope, truth and justice, did not die on our watch but thrive on his speech. 
We must achieve these targets for us or the earth during the decade. The first step was ratifying the TPNW. This one step is even the great step of world peace for our survivals. 
Advance toward humanitarian competition from the expansion of armaments again today! Advance toward our victory of humanistic transformation day after day.
Congratulation! Cambodia ratified the TPNW at 52nd country on 22 January 2021.
