    Today’s decision by the Russian Federation to revoke its ratification of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty is very disappointing and deeply regrettable.

    Thanks to @TheEconomist for highlighting the challenge for entry into force of the #CTBT on the eve of the 25th anniversary of the treaty being open for signature. As for the rendition of me … well done KAL.

    What a powerful picture of diversity in its various dimensions at the high-level meeting of the Friends of the CTBT today. So thankful for the partnership to achieve a legally binding ban on nuclear testing for these generations and the generations to come. @JPN_PMO @SenatorWong

    Proud of my father, great mentor to many, passed away on 12 Dec at 96 years. Tribute by botanist: “Alex Floyd No-one has done more to bring NSW rainforests into our hearts, minds and culture. A great botanist, an old-growth veteran, a mentor to me and so many. And a lovely man”

    It is disappointing that the State Duma of the Russian Federation is now taking forward a bill to revoke Russia’s ratification of the #CTBT. I urge leaders in Russia to consider a different path, one which reinforces global commitment to ending nuclear testing.
