&quot; Japan &apos; s initiative to promote the entry into force of the CTBT &quot; was introduced by Foreign Minister Katsuya Okada at the 6th Conference on Facilitating the Entry into Force of the CTBT in September 2009, to intensify Japan &apos; s efforts to engage with Annex 2 states that have not yet signed or ratified the Treaty by taking every opportunity, including meetings between heads of states, to accelerate our efforts to advance the establishment of the International Monitoring System (IMS) and to cooperate with states concerned in the area of maintenance of IMS facilities.
Le Japon voulait ainsi redoubler d &apos; efforts pour inciter les États visés à l &apos; annexe 2 n &apos; ayant pas encore signé ou ratifié le Traité à saisir toute occasion, notamment les réunions au sommet entre chefs d &apos; État, pour accélérer la mise en place du Système de surveillance international et collaborer avec les États concernés pour l &apos; entretien des installations dans le cadre de cette initiative du Système.
