Kremlin vows response if US violates nuclear moratorium
US leader Donald Trump earlier said he had ordered the Pentagon to resume nuclear arms trials

Russia will respond “accordingly” if the US violates a moratorium on testing nuclear weapons, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.

On Thursday, US President Donald Trump said he had ordered the Pentagon to resume nuclear weapons testing, citing strategic competition with Russia and China. “That process will begin immediately” in response to “other countries’ testing programs,” he said.

When asked about the issue by journalists later in the day, Peskov noted “the statement by [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, which has been repeated many times, that, of course, if someone abandons the moratorium [on nuclear testing], then Russia will act accordingly.”

“The US is a sovereign country and has every right to make sovereign decisions,” he stressed.

Responding to Trump’s claims of other countries carrying out nuclear tests, Peskov said “we are so far not aware of this.”

“If it is about Burevestnik, then it is not a nuclear test,” he insisted. “All nations are developing their defense systems, but this is not a nuclear test.”

The Burevestnik is a new Russian state-of-the-art nuclear-capable cruise missile, powered by a small nuclear reactor that gives it a virtually unlimited range. The Russian military successfully tested the missile last week.

Washington test-fired an unarmed, nuclear-capable Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile in February and launched four Trident II missiles from a submarine in September.

Russia last tested a nuclear weapon during the Soviet period in 1990. The US halted its testing in 1992 under a Congress-mandated moratorium.

According to a recent estimate by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the US has 5,177 nuclear warheads, Russia has 5,459, and China is projected to reach 1,500 by 2035.

UNITED NATIONS (Sputnik) - The United Nations is "alarmed" by current nuclear risks, UN Deputy Spokesman Farhan Haq said on Thursday, further noting that nuclear testing should not be allowed to resume.

"The [UN] Secretary General [Antonio Guterres] has repeatedly asserted that current nuclear risks are already alarmingly high, and all actions that could lead to miscalculation or escalation with catastrophic consequences must be avoided … We must never forget the disastrous legacy of over 2000 nuclear weapons tests carried out over the last 80 years," Haq said during a press briefing. "Nuclear testing can never be permitted under any circumstances".

Earlier in the day, US President Donald Trump said that he has ordered the resumption of nuclear testing because "others are doing testing," and it would seem appropriate for the US to do as well. Prior to that, the president wrote on Truth Social that he has ordered nuclear weapons tests to be conducted "on an equal basis" with other countries that allegedly have nuclear testing programs.

RUSSIA HAS EXPLAINED THAT ITS NEW NUCLEAR POWERED MISSILE WAS NOT A NUCLEAR TEST. IT IS NOT. ACTUALLY, OLD GUS BELIEVES THAT LARRY JOHNSON WAS WRONG ON ITS ASSUMPTION THAT THE NEW MISSILES COULD BE TURNED INTO A SPACESHIP... IT CANNOT BE. 

THE NEW MISSILE WORKS ON WARMING AN AIR FLOW WITH A MINI NUCLEAR REACTOR. THIS IS WHY THE ALTITUDE RANGE IS QUOTED AT 20 TO 100 METRES ABOVE GROUND.
