Discussions on the participation of nuclear weapon states in the South-East Asia Nuclear Weapon-Free Zone Treaty (SEANWFZ) are showing progress, says Wisma Putra.
Foreign Ministry secretary-general Datuk Seri Amran Mohamed Zin said they are also looking at practices in other nuclear weapon-free zones globally.
00:30Ataupun reservasi kepada Sean Fes protokol itu isu utama sebab kita melihat juga kepada practice oleh other nuclear open free zones.
00:46So memang menjadi tempuan di peringkat ASEAN untuk ataupun supaya negara-negara nuclear state ini menyertai Sean Fes protokol dan menjadi sebahagian daripada Sean Fes regime berhubung
01:16dan ASEAN sebagai kawasan bebasan senjata nuclear.
01:25Perbincangan masih diteruskan dan keputusan penting telah pun dibuat sebelum ini berhubung penyertaan negara-negara nuclear ini sama ada dengan reservation ataupun tanpa reservation.
01:40So masih diteruskan dan kita ada macam indication kita akan dapat progress, progress dapat dicapai lah walaupun buka ini telah pun memakan masa yang agak lama.
01:57On Myanmar, yes, the discussion on this issue took place during the last 46th summit and as you said, since the summit until now, the time is rather short.
02:13But of course, this is an important issue for ASEAN as a whole, including Myanmar, and we expect for the ministers will take stock of the progress of what happened since the 46th summit.
02:27Because during the summit itself, important decision was made, including on the aspect of expanded and extended ceasefire.
02:34So there will be updates on the developments in Myanmar so far, and then the ministers of foreign affairs will definitely discuss this issue.
02:47And then on the ceasefire in Palestine, of course, it is an important issue for ASEAN as well.
02:53Recently, ASEAN foreign affairs issued a statement on the latest development in the Middle East.
02:59And this, as I said, will continue to be an issue of attention to ASEAN.
03:05And we will see the developments in the coming days.
03:09If, of course, positive developments with regard to ceasefire, there is something that foreign ministers will talk about it and will form a common position to respond to the latest development.
