Mikhail Gorbachev told scientists and world leaders that more work is needed in the fight against a nuclear arms race.

The last leader of the Soviet Union issued a statement to organisers at the Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs in Nova Scotia saying that discussions like the ones being held at the assembly of world leaders and scientists is a good start.

"It is good to know that the (conference) is an ongoing, vibrant project that continues to bring together concerned scientists who fully understand the responsibility to humankind," Gorbachev said in a statement. Gorbachev did not attend the conference.
