As a whole, I believe the group worked well together by communicating and providing feedback throughout the whole process. Each group member did their share of their work and contributed as a whole to any discussion or questions we had as a group. In the process of brainstorming, Christopher discussed the topic about nuclear weapons and how it’s a big issue in today’s world not just in America but globally across the world.

Marco proposed the demand of states to renounce the no first-use of nuclear weapon in relation to what I proposed address the nuclear
