mailing ICAN 13.07.2017 Dear friends, Last week we banned nuclear weapons. It still feels a bit surreal to think that we pulled it off. But what does it all mean? Treaties and international law is sometimes a complex issue, and we’ve gotten a lot of questions about what the treaty does and how it will work.
