>> Dear Presidents and Prime Ministers, Foreign Ministers and Defence
>>Ministers,
>>
>> The undersigned NGO groups and Parliamentarians, representing  millions o=
f
>> people,  are writing:
>>
>> 1) To urge the US not to proceed with proposals for a National Missile
>> Defence System (NMD),
>>
>> 2) To urge  US allies to make the strongest representations in appropriat=
e
>> forums or bilaterally, to press the US government not to proceed with the
>> deployment of NMD, and to maintain the integrity of the ABM Treaty.
>>
>> Proceeding with National Missile Defence threatens to undermine the basis
>> of existing and future offensive nuclear arms reduction measures.
>>
>> We note the strong statements made on NMD by the Governments of France,
>> Germany and Sweden, and the expressions of concern by other US allies
>> including the UK, Canada, and the European Union.
>>
>> At the recent NPT Review Conference, the US together with 187 other
>> countries, signed a final declaration that commits it to an unequivocal
>> undertaking to accomplish the total elimination of its nuclear arsenal.
>> Plans to deploy a missile defence system threaten that vital goal, to whi=
ch
>> the US is legally committed, together with all other NPT signatories. The
>> final declaration of the NPT Review Conference expressly calls for:
>> "the early implementation and entry into force of START-II and conclusion
>> of START-III as soon as possible while preserving and strengthening the
>> Antiballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty as a cornerstone of strategic stabilit=
y
>> and as a basis for further reductions of strategic offensive weapons in
>> accordance with its provisions."
>>
>> We do not believe it is possible for this to be interpreted in a way that
>> will allow the deployment of an NMD system, nor should it be so
>> interpreted. We therefore  urge the US and Russia instead to proceed to t=
he
>> negotiation of START-III at the lowest possible force levels and to the
>> immediate implementation of START-II.
>>
>> We note that the UN Secretary-General, and representatives of Russia,
>> China, the UK, France, Sweden, the European Community, the New Agenda
>> Coalition and the Non-Aligned movement have expressed the view that the A=
BM
>> treaty is the cornerstone of global strategic stability.
>>
>> The recent meeting of G8 foreign ministers has also expressed strong
>> concern over the possibility that the ABM treaty may be abrogated to allo=
w
>> NMD to proceed, and has stated that they are 'deeply concerned' over
>> missile proliferation as a result of NMD.
>>
>> The Australian Senate on June 29th, passed a motion in which it called on
>> the US not to proceed with the deployment of an NMD system and in which i=
t
>> called for the implementation of START-II as soon as possible, and the
>> negotiation of START-III at the lowest possible force levels.
>>
>> We note also recent expressions of concern within the US, by
>> Congresspeople, Nobel laureates, and other distinguished and influential
>> people and organizations.
>>
>> America should not simply ignore the strongly repeated opinion of
>> governments and NGOs of the whole world, that NMD should not proceed,  an=
d
>> that the integrity of  the ABM treaty should be maintained.
>>
>> Missile defence schemes respond to an exaggerated perception of the missi=
le
>> threat from so-called 'Rogue States', (now termed 'States of Concern')  a=
re
>> not the solution to missile proliferation,  sabotage nuclear disarmament
>> efforts to which the US is legally committed along with the rest of the
>> world, and decrease overall US and international security.
>>
>> There are serious doubts  whether this system, or  whether any missile
>> defence system,  can ever work.  The problems posed even by relatively
>> simple decoys are probably technically insoluble. The Welch Panel, an
>> independent team of scientists,  released a report outlining the
>> probability of NMD systems failure due to time and schedule constraints.
>>
>> Instead of pursuing missile defence, it is vital that the US  focus on
>> practical solutions to global  strategic security.  We therefore urge the
>> US and Russia,  as the highest priority, to proceed to the elimination of
>> as many warheads as possible under any START-III agreement, the removal o=
f
>> obstacles to the implementation of START-II,  and  the removal of
>> strategic missile forces from high alert status as advocated by the
>> Canberra Commission, subsequent UN resolutions and the final NPT
>> declaration.
>>
>> Yours Sincerely,
>> (Signed)
