Ayer enviamos formalmente la carta adjunta al Secretario General de las Naciones Unidas y al Vicesecretario General, en la que hacemos una Convocatoria a la Humanidad para una Conferencia Mundial de Reconciliación, Paz y Desarme con lo que damos también oficialmente comenzada la campaña-
Nuestra propuesta se basa en un principio sencillo: Es contradictorio o absurdo, como lo ha sido en el pasado, buscar la reconciliación, la paz y la concordia y a la vez la forma y medio, las armas, de dañar al otro.
Precisamente porque solo un compromiso universal puede superar ese absurdo -algo que posibilita nuestro tiempo. Y eso es así porque el arma determina que nuestra relación es la de una voluntad que se impone a otra, pero no por justicia, mayor conocimiento o capacidad, sino porque puede destruir al otro, lo que hace además que esas voluntades estén condicionadas a armarse más en impedir que el otro lo haga mediante la guerra (u otros medios, económicos o de poder). Esto es simplemente así y no puede ser de otra manera. Pero nos hace falta entenderlo, compartirlo y superarlo juntos, universalmente. Y eso es lo que vamos a hacer.

Your Excellencies,
We have the honour of bringing to your attention the Call to Humanity for a World Conference of Reconciliation, Peace and Disarmament, founded on a simple, logical and readily understandable principle: it is meaningless to seek reconciliation, peace and concord if not only hostilities continue, but also the development of armaments. Words alone cannot overcome the contradiction of seeking peace while, at the same time, seeking to harm one another.
As has truly been understood in the past, only through a genuinely universal action can we bring an end to evil—the ill will, or the will to harm embodied in the weapon. Any cessation of harm that is not universal merely amounts to submitting to the will that persists in harming others; and to obey such a will is itself to participate in harm, to serve the weapon.
The mere existence of the weapon, both as an instrument and as an organized structure whose purpose is to inflict harm, establishes a relationship in which one will can impose itself upon another by force. It therefore creates a permanent condition of confrontation: each side is compelled to increase its capacity to inflict harm while preventing the other from doing the same, ultimately even through war. Whatever justification may later be given for this power —whether through law, authority, necessity or otherwise— does not alter the underlying relationship. The weapon determines whose will can prevail, rather than reason, knowledge, or human capacity to understand and persuade.
We therefore consider that, since this Conference addresses the whole of humanity, and since disarmament concerns all States and, ultimately, all armed organizations, the United Nations constitutes the natural framework within which such a Conference should be held.
We remain at your disposal should you require any further information.
Thank you very much for your attention.
Yours sincerely,
Manuel Herranz Martín
