Nuclear Balance of Force Today

M. Wehbi

Abstract: The world was introduced to nuclear powers in 1945 when the US tested their first ever nuclear bomb; this lead to numerous countries following suit – particularly Russia. In terms of managing the nuclear powers, there has been a slow yet steady increase in not only the weapons in storage but also the countries successfully testing the nuclear means. This has been the cause of unchecked nuclear arsenal deposits; now agencies have been monitoring the nuclear powers and gaining their agreement to curtail the arsenals already stored and to deter any new countries from joining into the nuclear race.
