Latest developments
Andorra observed the Second Meeting of States Parties (2MSP) to the TPNW in November-December 2023 but did not make a statement.
Andorra maintains policies and practices that are compatible with all of the prohibitions in Article 1 of the TPNW, and can therefore sign and ratify or accede to the Treaty without the need for a change in conduct.
Recommendations
-
Andorra should urgently adhere to the TPNW.
