Pervez Musharraf, Pakistan <pakistan at undp.org> Dear Mr. President, A century ago, Grenville Clark, who later became co-author with Louis B. Sohn of the influential 1958 book "World Peace Through World Law," rode through a town in the Midwest and found that every man was carrying two loaded guns in his belt. When he returned a year later, he was surprised to see that nobody had a gun. He asked what had happened. "Shortly after you left," he was told, "there was a series of fatal shootings. A judge passed through our town and offered to come by once a week to sit to court if we would agree to give up our guns and appoint a sheriff. We thought, why not try, and have indeed felt much safer since then." This is the road we need to pursue to be secure in today's world. As long as we have global anarchy, with every country fending for itself, we cannot be secure. If only a single nation makes nuclear weapons available to terrorists, all are in grave danger. No country, not even a superpower, can solve global problems by itself. Only through global cooperation can we effectively prevent threats to human existence. We need global treaties with effective verification and enforcement. We urge you to uphold international treaties that improve all of our security, including the anti-ballistic missile treaty, the chemical and biological weapons bans and their verification, the Kyoto treaty to stem global warming, and the Nuclear Non- proliferation treaty, under which the United States and other nuclear powers committed themselves to nuclear disarmament. Sincerely, [Your name, post address & country] ****************************************************************** OTHER ACTIONS YOU CAN TAKE: 1) Write also to your national and local representatives. 2) Write by hand (a list of mailing addresses is attached below). 3) Reformulate as a letter to the editor of your local newspaper. 4) Send us the names and email addresses of others who you believe may participate in this monthly campaign. 5) Inform us of what you have done, and make other suggestions. ****************************************************************** Addresses of the heads of other nuclear weapons states: President Vladimir Putin Office of the Government Krasnopresenskaya 2 Moscow, RUSSIA tel +7-095-925-3581, fax +7-095-205-4219 email rusun at undp.org Prime Minister Tony Blair Prime Minister's Office 10 Downing Street London, SW 1A 2 AA, BRITAIN tel +44-171-270-3000 fax +44(207)925-0918 website www.number-10.gov.uk President Jacques Chirac Office du President, Palais De L'Elysee 55-57 rue du Faubourg St. Honore 75008 Paris, FRANCE tel +33-1-4292-8100, Fax +33-1-4742-2465 email fraun at undp.org President Jiang Zemin Office of the Premier 225 Chaoyangmennei Dajie, Dongsi Beijing, P.
