A U.S. official defended President Donald Trump's plans to resume nuclear testing at a closed-door Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization meeting here on November 10, citing Russia and China's violations of the zero-yield moratorium and North Korea's six nuclear tests, according to new documents in an Associated Press report shared over the past hour. The U.S. position, as stated in the documents, indicated that testing would begin "immediately" and transparently if resumed, amid rising nuclear tensions. The Associated Press article was published today and posted on X by journalist Stephanie Liechtenstein and Faytuks Network during the reporting window from 1:15 PM to 2:15 PM UTC. The defense highlighted concerns over alleged sub-yield testing by Russia and China, distinguishing official U.S. statements from other reports on nuclear activities.
