U.S. Revives Nuclear Testing: A New Era in Arms Race?

President Trump announces U.S. intentions to resume nuclear testing, similar to other countries. This development follows a 33-year hiatus in nuclear detonations by the U.S., aiming to revitalize its military strategies. The declaration raises questions about the future of global arms race dynamics and strategic alliances.

In a significant policy shift, President Donald Trump announced plans for the United States to resume nuclear testing, similar to other nations. However, he stopped short of confirming whether this would involve detonating a warhead.

"I don't want to tell you about that, but we will do nuclear testing like other countries," stated Trump on Air Force One, en route to Florida for a weekend visit.

Last month, Trump commanded the U.S. military to restart nuclear testing processes after a 33-year hiatus. This surprise directive was revealed on Truth Social, while Trump was on Marine One heading to China for a trade session with President Xi Jinping in Busan, South Korea.
