Pakistan has rejected the new nuclear treaty for ban on production of fissile material. Addressing the General Assembly’s Committee for Disarmament and International Security, Pakistan’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations Raza Bashir Tarar said that it was indispensable for Pakistan to oppose the ban on production of fissile material used as fuel for nuclear weapons because it is not in favour of Pakistan. He also criticized the discriminatory attitude of international powers towards Pakistan.
