Trump's opportunistic attack on #Iran has undermined the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. #iranusconflict #NPT

Iran's threat to abandon the Non-Proliferation Treaty threatens a broader series of conflicts in the Middle East. #iranisraelwar #NuclearWeapons

For #Canada , the 3 inter-related crises of disinformation, inequality and #climatechange must be tackled by the #carney government, if it is to be able to hold the country together and fend off Trump.

Donald Trump has apparently not dropped his horrific plan to turn Gaza into a luxury resort, which depends on the removal of Palestinians from #Gaza . #GazaGenocide
