On October 30, according to foreign media reports, US President Donald Trump said that the United States will speed up the testing of nuclear weapons, after Russia announced tests of nuclear-powered underwater drones and nuclear cruise missiles in recent days. Trump posted on social media: "Due to other countries' testing programs, I have instructed the Department of War to begin testing our nuclear weapons on an equal basis, and this process will begin immediately." As Trump's efforts to broker ceasefire talks in Ukraine have faltered, Russia has accelerated the testing of so-called nuclear superweapons in recent weeks. These advanced nuclear weapons are designed to break through missile defenses. Earlier this week, Trump called Putin-led missile tests "inappropriate" and said the Russian president should focus on ending the conflict with Ukraine. The United States last tested a nuclear weapon in 1992, but the country continues to test delivery systems - including intercontinental ballistic missiles, submarines and bombers - using simulated weapons.
