Samul Baloch, vice president of the BNM Germany Chapter was quoted as saying by the news agency, “Nuclear testing is a matter of great concern for the entire international community. It is an action that has far-reaching consequences, affecting not only the environment but also the lives of countless individuals. The testing of nuclear weapons in Balochistan by the Pakistan military raises serious questions about the nation’s commitment to global disarmament efforts.”
“Balochistan, a region already grappling with numerous socio-political challenges, is now burdened with the presence of nuclear testing sites. The consequences of these tests are not limited to the immediate surroundings but extend beyond borders, impacting neighbouring countries and the overall ecosystem. The potential hazards to human health, the environment, and the delicate balance of nature cannot be ignored,” she added.
