 * The Issue at hand
 * Planning on keeping the Southern Hemisphere a "Nuclear free zone"
 * Nuclear Free Zone: A clearly defined zone in which nations agree by conventional democratic and independent means to ban the production development and deployment of any and all nuclear arms
 * Southern Hemisphere Nuclear Free Zone coordinates:
 * Treaties concerning NWFZ's in the Southern Hemisphere:
 * The African NWFZ treaty which all African nations are a part of as well as several neighboring island nations. Despite the fact that all African nations have signed the treaty 24 of them have not ratified it, which is concerning to all those nations whom have ratified and adopted the treaty
 * Treaty of Rarotonga, also known as the South Pacific NWFZ. Consists of Australia and several of its territories, American Samoan islands, New Zealand territories, french territories, Tuvalu, Tonga and many other nations in the area.
 * The rarotonga treaty has 3 strict protocols. No manafacturing, testing or use of nuclear weapons within the zone or against any other nation within the zone.
 * What is the purpose of a nuclear Free zone?
 * Nuclear Free zones are binding treaties which forbid the use of nuclear weapons within those zones and in some cases also the manafacturing and distribution of such weapons
 * The reasons for these treaties are not only to promote peace and stability but to ensure that the regions which have NWFZ treaties can ensure that they will not be affected by nuclear fallout affected by wind flow
 * These treaties can also be used to hold a nation personally accountable for the breach of the treaties protocol and endangerment of nations within the zone
 * Colombias stance
 * In favor
 * Agrees with USA's views ||
 * __//**Operative clauses**//__
 * 1) Urges all nations that are signatories of any NWFZ treaties to adhere by the already properly and firmly established rules.
 * 2) Requests that all nations, regardless of whether or not they are signatories of any NWFZ treaties, slowly deplete their possession of nuclear arms through means of disarmament and dis-assembly of these weapons and nations who don't already possess the technology to produce these weapons cease any and all future plans to manufacture said weapons.
 * 3) Strongly urges all nations that do not already have the technology to enrich uranium to 90%, the level needed to make nuclear warheads and bombs, adhere to a new rule, stipulating that uranium can only be enriched up to 20% in these nations to prevent any suspicion of nuclear arms development or temptation. Exception can be made for larger nations with immense populations which need stronger uranium to power hospitals and power plants while still not enriching uranium to any level above 40%
