Trump has directed the U.S. military to restart nuclear weapons testing after 30+ years. The U.S. then stood alone at the UN opposing the CTBT.

We must say NO to nuclear testing.

US Stands Alone Defying UN Vote on Nuclear Test Ban Treaty UNITED NATIONS, November 12 (IPS) - The US took another step backward –to break ranks with the United Nations– when it voted against a draft resolution calling for the entry into force of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT).The negative vote followed an announcement by President Trump last month that the US plans to resume nuclear testing after a 33-year hiatus.

The U.S. learned hard lessons from Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and decades of atmospheric testing. Reopening debate on the Test Ban Treaty ignores that history—and risks giving others a strategic advantage.

When Action Betray Words - Stratheia India’s nuclear posture contradicts its disarmament rhetoric, exposing strategic doublespeak and regional security concerns.
