The Chairman of the State Duma of the Russian Federation spoke in favor of discussing the cancellation of Russia's ratification of the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty

Discussion of the issue of Russia's abandonment of the moratorium on nuclear testing, taking into account the growing confrontation with the West, has moved from the public space into government circles. The day before, Russian President Vladimir Putin, during a speech at the plenary session of the XNUMXth meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club, said that Moscow is ready to respond in a mirror to the US actions on this issue.

The head of state noted that the United States only signed the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), while Russia signed and ratified (approved at the legislative level) this document. However, if necessary, this ratification can be withdrawn, Putin concluded.

Today, the Chairman of the Lower House of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, Vyacheslav Volodin, developed this topic in his Telegram channel, saying that at the next meeting of the Council of the State Duma the issue of the possibility of revoking the ratification of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty will definitely be discussed.

This corresponds to the national interests of our state. And there will be a mirror response from the United States, which has not yet ratified the treaty

Volodin thinks.

He noted that the situation in the world has changed dramatically over the past year and a half. After the start of the special operation in Ukraine, Washington and its allies actually started a war against our country. New challenges require appropriate decisions from the Russian leadership, the Chairman of the State Duma of the Russian Federation emphasized.

The Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty was signed on September 24, 1996. According to it, the countries participating in the agreement undertake not to carry out any nuclear explosions either on their territory or in any place under the jurisdiction or control of a state that has accepted the terms of the CTBT. Latest nuclear tests weapons on Russian territory were carried out on October 24, 1990 during Soviet times at the Novaya Zemlya training ground (Object 700). The United States last conducted underground nuclear weapons tests in 1992.

To date, the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty has been signed by 184 states and ratified by 168 countries. The withdrawal of ratification of the CTBT does not mean Russia's automatic withdrawal from the treaty. However, this allows the President of the Russian Federation to quickly make such a decision by signing the corresponding decree. According to some reports, the test site on Novaya Zemlya is still maintained in working order and is ready to test nuclear weapons.

Moscow is ready to respond in a mirror manner to US actions on this issue.

I'm sick of these red lines.
Either answer or stop shaking the air.

“Respond and leave” - it will be necessary to conduct tests. The United States will also begin to conduct them. This is the famous ladder of conflict escalation...

[Nesvoy]

And let me guess, the USA will be to blame for this again?

And when was the USA to blame? How can they be to blame, they simply did not ratify the treaty.
Here, the other day, Mrs. Clinton accused Putin of moving his borders towards NATO countries

I agree.
The Darkest was more useful when he simply remained eloquently silent.
During such “pauses” of his, half the world uncontrollably “walked under itself.”

Maybe, maybe...
But I remember his 2007 speech in the German Bundestag (in German, by the way!). So after it, the Western scumbags came to their senses for a day, after the shock!
Here the lunar officer made it clear that “anything can happen.” And his protégé Volodin has already made a stance: “This corresponds to the national interests of our state. And it will be a mirror response from the United States, which has not yet ratified the treaty...”
I believe that at the next meeting of the State Duma this issue will be raised and voted on “as it should be.” After this, ByDown will need to scratch his turnips: raise the temperature in Ukraine and in interstate affairs with us, or start wagging his tail...
But, most likely, they will still pull out something not very powerful, but terribly “advanced” from the Los Alamos laboratory... We, of course, will answer. The rest will close their eyes, and then - who will start shouting about the aggressive Russians, who will panic and start buying iodine-containing anti-radiation drugs, who will start putting bunkers and shelters in order... In short, the next stage of the arms race will be launched.
China and the USA will trample into space, but we will have a black hole???
This is where you think and remember about the “wise interethnic Leninist policy”, when the Ukrainian SSR was in the united system of “brotherly peoples”, and not Mazepshchina from the highway!
(Oh, it’s time, it’s time to end this Nazi regime! Otherwise there won’t be enough resources for everything! And space is like that, it won’t wait: whoever didn’t have time is late!
By the way, the X-37B has already started loading...)
Yes, really... However!

[dump22]

But, most likely, they will still yank something that is not very powerful

Why should they rush?
They are cunning bastards and that is why (to spite us) they will not rush first. They will just wait, like in February 2022.

So, apparently, in this case we will have to start again first, and it will be us who will be accused of destroying the moratorium.

[smart ass]

I really don’t understand why we need all the international organizations? Agreements with the states!? These are enemies! What for at the UN? What war did the UN stop?

[Berserk23]

A sequel to Oppenheimer's film, but seriously...

[Nesvoy]

And judging by the comments, fools and crazy people are just waiting for this. Everyone is in a hurry to go to heaven.

[parabyd]

And various other wise men think that if you put your paws up now and give up, you will live well and make good things...

Those who surrender will simply be killed after the tribunal. So what's the difference?

[Vasilenko Vladimir]

those who are not killed will be reduced to the level of cattle

[Nesvoy]

Tribunal over whom? Over all of Russia?

[Vasilenko Vladimir]

why not, they will declare us guilty of all mortal sins, conduct lustration and say that our place is on the reservations

Not everyone. But the people of Sevastopol, Crimeans, DPR and LPR, as well as those who trusted Russia in the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions, will be physically destroyed.. They may not touch you... You are their own. We know you as Kam Nesvoy...

Evgen, because the Germans and Japanese are their own for the West, unlike the USSR-Russia

The Germans were denazified in full, at least in Germany. They cannot say the word "Negro". At all. Like some kind of psychological block. They give you a prison term for "zig". Plus - occupation and complete lack of independence.

Why weren’t the Germans and Japanese killed after the war?

a certain Lieutenant Pazur, who served in the Czechoslovak counterintelligence, with the support of a group of like-minded people, decided to carry out an act of retaliation against refugees fleeing oppression. The heightened pride and self-esteem of this officer, trampled upon by the Nazis, did not give him rest day or night. During the occupation of Czechoslovakia, Pazur was forced to compromise his conscience by joining the police force under the fascist regime. Now, more than ever, the climate of intolerance towards the German nation contributed to settling scores and taking out anger on any entity directly or indirectly related to the occupiers.

read about the Brunn death march

On the night of June 18-19, 1945, near the city of Přerov, a detachment of counterintelligence officers under the command of Pazur attacked a train with refugees. Under the guise of a standard procedure for checking documents, all the Germans were taken out of the carriages and shot without unnecessary delay right next to the railway tracks. As a result of the bloody massacre, 265 people were killed, of whom 71 were men, 120 women and 74 minor children, the youngest was 8 months old.

in the city of Ústí nad Labem. Here, on July 31, 1945, an ammunition depot exploded. Needless to say, without particularly bothering to find the culprits, the investigative authorities proclaimed the same German diaspora to be the root of evil. "Bartholomew's Night" followed immediately. Indignant townspeople caught the Germans in their own houses and on the streets, recognizing them by their white armbands. The reprisal came immediately, all available means were used - from sticks and stones to firearms. Victims were thrown from bridges into the river. Those who tried to swim to the surface received a blow to the head with a heavy stone or a bullet between the eyes. In total, more than 220 people died.

in the city of Domažlice, without good reason, the townspeople beat with sticks or burned alive in their houses about 200 Germans. In the city of Podborany, also without trial or investigation, embittered Czechs killed 68 representatives of German nationality. In addition to material damage, the female half of the German population was additionally subjected to moral humiliation. During the period of mass persecution and reprisals, a large number of German women were raped by Czechoslovak “patriots”. Many German women themselves gave themselves up to the railway guards for the opportunity to get on a train going abroad, away from pain, hardship and deprivation. Otherwise, women had to cover impressive distances on foot, and many also with young children in their arms.

[smart ass]

Don't get the smart guy involved here! He thinks differently!

[tralflot1832]

Volodin is doing the right thing, we need to ratify Russia’s withdrawal from the CTBT treaty and let it lie in Putin’s file, awaiting his signature. I wonder which faction will be against it in the Duma?

[ALARI]

Are there factions in the Duma? It’s funny to mistake United Russia branches for factions. Sane people will be against it.

Russia's withdrawal from the CTBT Treaty

With such a toothless foreign policy, where some easily withdraw from treaties on strategic weapons, and the other side expresses only regrets and concerns, tests will not be needed in the near future due to the beginning of the real use of nuclear weapons.

[Trapp1st]

the other side expresses only regrets and concerns

So, for a number of reasons, the other side is no longer capable of anything.

[Taimen]

Traders and cowards will not do anything. Chat will remain chatter. They will croak and disappear into the mud. Or, as always, they will attend to the pillar (either start with the right, or with the left).

[opuonmed]

The Russian Federation needs to work ahead of the curve!!!!!!!! and don’t wait for the weather to come out from the sea and that’s it!

[Ezekiel 25-17]

It is time not only to withdraw ratification, but also to withdraw from the CTBT.

[Trapp1st]

It's time to not only withdraw ratification, but also withdraw from the CTBT

What's the point in this hysteria?

Show the m-community that we respect the laws, are “predictable partners”, open to negotiations...
It’s the Yankees who put a twist on everyone and do everything that only benefits them, not caring about others. They are now playing “by the rules”, not caring about treaties and regulations. And they change the rules as they, their loved ones, please... The main thing is that they believe and preach the axiom - “The strong are always right!”
What can I say? - Pirates and highway bandits! And we have to deal with such “partners”...

[Dimy4]

According to some reports, the test site on Novaya Zemlya is still maintained in working condition and is ready to test nuclear weapons.

In the process, the “peace-loving liberals” did not get to him.

[I dare to_notice_]

If it weren’t for Valdai... with his speeches... such a good idea would never have occurred to anyone!
And then it dawned on the whole Volodin... who, apparently, only yesterday from a speech himself learned about such injustice with ratifications (God forgive me for such a word...)

[ALARI]

Maybe he really didn’t know. What will happen to them? Why are they all rushing to the Duma? THINK ABOUT THE COUNTRY? They muddy their schemes and the inviolability of their loved ones.

Well... without our choice they would not have gotten through there.

The Chairman of the State Duma of the Russian Federation spoke in favor of discussing the cancellation of Russia's ratification of the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty

Putin mentioned this yesterday too. Everything is correct, and it had to be done not only “mirror”, but also “instantly” - immediately after the contrived refusal of the United States to ratify it.
Don't run ahead of the horse.

[Petr_Koldunov]

Cancel, cancel... what is there to discuss? It would also be understandable if this garbage were carried out equally and on parity - otherwise they unilaterally put the yoke on themselves and are dragging them along. And the States live for themselves, not bound by any promises!

[dump22]

It would also be understandable if this garbage were carried out equally and on parity - otherwise they unilaterally put the yoke on themselves and are dragging them along.

Why is this unilateral?
This “bullshit” is actually carried out by all countries in the world, except the DPRK.

The United States carefully observes the moratorium on nuclear weapons testing.
And they even convinced Pakistan, India and China to implement this moratorium, although Pakistan and India did not sign this treaty at all, and China signed but did not ratify.

[ZovSailor]

Uv friends and not friends, incl. TsIPsio!
Politics is a dirty business and at the same time a delicate one... It’s not a fact that by revoking the radioification, the Russian Federation will immediately begin what its enemies (enemies) expect from it, but to tickle the nerves and raise the degree of tension especially for the mattresses after the successful tests of the “Burevestnik” and some other new ones species!.. in Christ to the fullest, someone won’t let Millie lie, he’s already shit himself and resigned!
There are still a number of important people in line to resign... but that's another story.
To be continued. The conclusions are up to you and us.
I have the honor.

[barbiturate]

It’s high time to do this - test nuclear weapons and back up the words that Russia cannot lose in practice. I don’t urge you to use it immediately, that’s not what I’m talking about, but it’s worth trying. The truth is that Russia is a huge, sparsely populated country and, moreover, a rapidly degenerating one (according to Rosstat, we are losing half a million or more per year) and we would like to retain our territory, there is no time for conquests.
We are inferior to NATO many times over in all respects, and only nuclear weapons can sober up and lead us on the path - let's come to an agreement. And it’s even possible, but why shouldn’t Russia join NATO? If you can't stop it, lead it! Well, this is so, fantasies on a free topic, but in reality, testing tactical nuclear weapons with a capacity of, for example, 0,2 kilotons (may become the most popular in such a matter) - this will very significantly reinforce our position, the supply of weapons and money to Ukraine, which is already and so not very rhythmic according to the money and the mood of the West, and will also save the lives of thousands and thousands of our soldiers in Ukraine.
