Ikuwunikiranso zakusowa kwa kupita patsogolo kwamitundu isanu ndi inayi ya zida za nyukiliya yomwe imagwira ena onse padziko lapansi ndi zida zawo zanyukiliya.
Albert Einstein adati mu 1946, "Mphamvu yotulutsidwa ya atomu yasintha chilichonse kupatula malingaliro athu motero tikupita kukuwonongeka kosayerekezeka." Kuyenda uku mwina sikunakhaleko kowopsa kuposa masiku ano. Ndi mawu osasamala owopseza kugwiritsa ntchito zida za nyukiliya, moto ndi ukali, ndikuwononga kwathunthu mayiko ena, dziko lapansi lazindikira kuti palibe manja oyenera kukhala pa batani la nyukiliya. Kuthetsa kwathunthu zida za nyukiliya ndiyo yankho lokhalo.
Zida zanyukiliya padziko lonse lapansi zakhala cholinga cha United Nations kuyambira pomwe idakhazikitsidwa mu 1945. Pomwe bungwe la Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty lidaperekedwa mu 1970, mayiko anyukiliya padziko lapansi adadzipereka kugwira ntchito "mwachikhulupiriro" atha zida zonse za nyukiliya. Pangano la NPT lomwe lakhala mwala wapangodya wa zida zanyukiliya lidasowa lamulo loti likwaniritse cholingachi. Izi zikuchitika mdziko lapansi lokhala ndi zida za nyukiliya zokwana 15,000 kuphatikiza kuzindikira kwatsoka la zopereka zaumunthu ngati zida za nyukiliya zidzagwiritsidwanso ntchito zakhazikitsa gulu lapadziko lonse lapansi la anthu wamba, anthu achilengedwe, omwe akuzunzidwa ndi kuyesedwa kwa atomiki, pamsonkhano wapadziko lonse lapansi zosavomerezeka zakupezeka ndikugwiritsa ntchito zida za nyukiliya mulimonse momwe zingakhalire.
Ntchitoyi yazaka zambiri yakhala ikugwirizana ndi Pangano la Kuletsa Zida za Nyukiliya zomwe zinaperekedwa ku United Nations pa July 7, 2017 ndipo zimapereka malamulo oyenera kuti athetse zida za nyukiliya.

Pamene mayiko a 50 adatsimikiza kuti atha kukhazikitsa panganoli, amatha kugwira ntchito masiku a 90 ndikupanga zida za nyukiliya kuti zisagwiritsidwe ntchito, kuzigwiritsa ntchito, kuzigwiritsa ntchito kapena kuopseza kuti zigwiritse ntchito, kuyesa, kupititsa patsogolo kapena kusintha, monga momwe zida zonse zowonongeka wakhala.
Dziko lapansi linayankhula ndipo kuwonjezeka kwa kutha kwa nyukiliya kwathunthu kwatha. Njirayi ndi yosasinthika. Aliyense wa ife ndi fuko lathu ali ndi udindo wochita pofotokoza izi. Aliyense wa ife afunse kuti ntchito yathu ndi yotani.
