Nuclear exchange: RRW for CTBT?
By Yousaf Butt | 9 April 2010
Article Highlights
* Supporters of the so-called Reliable Replacement Warhead have once again begun making their case for adding a new nuclear warhead to the U.S. arsenal in recent weeks.
* In particular, they might not ratify the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT)--a goal of the Obama administration and Senate Democrats--until funding for such a warhead has been provided.
* That leaves CTBT advocates in a tough spot: Should they still support ratification of the treaty if it means also consenting to building new nuclear weapons?
