"Well, what I see is, of course, the leaders of the great powers from time to time exchange statements, and some are in reaction of somebody else's, some are spontaneous. And what we tend to do is we look at the facts. And in terms of nuclear testing, we don't see any for the moment," Grossi said.

In late October, US President Donald Trump said he had ordered nuclear weapons tests to be conducted "on an equal basis" with other countries that allegedly have nuclear testing programs. However, the US president also said that denuclearization is the best solution.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said that if other countries conduct nuclear tests, Russia will act accordingly.
