Many countries around the world, particularly those in East Asia have seen many great devastations occurring as a result of lack of Security. Times such as the cold war was a time when tensions were lower and the impending doom of security breaching was quite low. However in more recent times, Countries like DPRK have shown their power. Nuclear weapons have been a hot topic of the past few decades and countries like North Korea are starting to stray away from the common good and are now doing their own thing.
Seeing as Uruguay is in south eastern region of south America, many would say that this issue does not affect us. However some of our allies, Such as the United States, are in fact in danger. Countries going rogue and not following set guideline put in place by the United Nations can and will have serious consequences for us all. If we do pass some sort of an amendment that protects all nations, then we will be at a great risk. We need to ensure that all countries feel as though they are safe and do not need to worry about foreign powers attacking them.
The republic of Uruguay believes it best to create a multi tiered comprehensive plan that benefits all nations. No matter if you are little or small, we all deserve the right to rest easy at night knowing that we are not in danger. While it is not entirely feasible to restrict and ad all military grade weapons being used unlawfully, we can try and make sure that these nations know what the true repercussions are.
