US will not conduct nuclear tests at this stage - White House

The Special Representative of the President of the United States for Arms Control, Marshall Billingsley, rejected the possibility of the country resuming nuclear tests at this stage. He said this during a conversation with reporters. The official emphasized that Washington does not intend to terminate the comprehensive nuclear-test-ban treaty (CTBT). We will conduct nuclear tests if we have reasons for that. But at this stage there is no reason for this, Billingsley concluded. Recall that earlier in the American media information was published about the discussion by the US government of the possibility of resuming nuclear tests.
