The United States is planning to conduct a nuclear test as the Trump administration backtracks on US treaties to reduce nuclear arms, according to a report.

The US says it is prepared to spend Russia and China "into oblivion" in order to win a new nuclear arms race.

The United States’ move to deploy low-yield nuclear missiles on submarines and potentially heightening the risk of a limited nuclear war is a direct breach of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and a “slap in the face for the international law and weapons control,” says an American political commentator.

The United States’ new nuclear warheads, deployed on a nuclear submarine are still powerful enough to kill many people.

Russia says it is alarmed by the US decision to deploy low-yield nuclear missiles on submarines.

An American academic warns that the US abandoned the INF Treaty because it wanted to take on Russia and China militarily and through expanding its nuclear arsenal.

North Korea warns against a potential move by the US to deploy ground-launched, intermediate-range missiles in South Korea.

The Russian president has warned that Moscow will develop new nuclear missiles if Washington does so.

The US defense secretary Mark Esper accuses China of following a pattern of aggressive behavior in Asia.

US President Donald Trump’s plan to withdraw from the INF treaty with Russia indicates that the US leader has no interest in nuclear arms control, says a political analyst.
