The treaty of Rarotonga is a ......... .
Answer: B
The Treaty of Rarotonga is a Nuclear Weapons Free Zone Treaty.
Signed at Rarotonga in the Cook Islands in 1985, the South Pacific Nuclear Free Zone Treaty bans the manufacture, possession, stationing and testing of nuclear explosive devices in the South Pacific, and the dumping of radioactive waste at sea there. It was a response to French nuclear testing in the Pacific.
It does not reduce existing nuclear arsenals, as the US-Soviet START treaties did, and it does not deal with chemical weapons, which are covered worldwide by the Chemical Weapons Convention.
