Grandpere’s love builds a Viking ship in West Pubnico | SaltWire - Russia's parliament moved swiftly to fulfil the wish of President Vladimir Putin by completing the passage of a bill that shifts Moscow's legal stance on nuclear testing at a time of acute tension with the West.
"We understand our responsibility to our citizens, we are protecting our country. What is happening in the world today is the exclusive fault of the United States," parliament speaker Vyacheslav Volodin said. Russia originally ratified the CTBT in 2000. While it is revoking that step, it has so far said it will remain a signatory to the treaty and continue to supply data to the global monitoring system which alerts the world to any nuclear test.
Back in February, he said Russia must"make everything ready" to conduct a test in case Washington did so. Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu visited Russia's testing ground in the remote northern archipelago of Novaya Zemlya in August. Experts at the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute said both steps may be intended by Putin"to generate alarm and uncertainty among states supporting Ukraine in its defence against Russia's illegal invasion".
