Explanation of vote

Draft resolution L.47

Nuclear disarmament

Chinese delegation

Mr. Chairman,

The Chinese delegation voted for the draft resolution A/C.1/58/L.47 entitled, "Nuclear Disarmament." China supports the objectives and the main thrust of this resolution, and agrees with some important nuclear disarmament measures contained in it.

However, under the current international situation, it is premature to implement some specific nuclear disarmament measures contained in this resolution. We are of the view that any nuclear disarmament measures, including interim steps, must follow the principle of maintaining global strategic stability and undiminished security for all countries.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
