United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres stressed that eradication of nuclear weapons remains the organization's "top priority," underlining that it is the only way to eliminate the "nuclear risk."

Iran PressAmerica: "The nuclear shadow that loomed over the Cold War has re-emerged. And some countries are recklessly rattling the nuclear saber once again, threatening to use these tools of annihilation. We will not sit idly by as nuclear-armed States race to create even more dangerous weapons," Guterres said in the address of 78th Anniversary of the Atomic Bombing of Hiroshima.

"We will not rest until the nuclear shadow has been lifted once and for all. No more Hiroshimas. No more Nagasakis," he added.
