The adoption of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) by the General Assembly on 10 September 1996 was the culmination of more than four decades of lengthy and complex negotiations and marked a major milestone on the road to nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament. Upon the opening for signature of the historic, 17-article document at United Nations Headquarters in New York on 24 September, the Secretary-General, as depositary of the Treaty, said its approval by the General Assembly had been a "bold act" that had realized a longstanding objective of the international community.
