Indian defense expert warns Trump’s nuclear test plan could trigger global arms race

U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump has announced plans to restart nuclear weapons testing, claiming the U.S. must act “on an equal basis” with other powers — but defense experts warn this could spark a dangerous global escalation.

Speaking to RT, Major General Rajan Kochhar, senior advisor at India’s Defense Research and Studies think tank, called the move “a dangerous precedent” that undermines decades of restraint and international treaties.
