President Vladimir Putin on Thursday signed a law withdrawing Russia's ratification of the global treaty banning nuclear weapons tests, a step condemned by the organisation which promotes adherence to the landmark arms control pact.
Why are people getting angry over this?
The US hasn’t ratified it either. China hasn’t either. Nor Israel. India hasn’t even signed it.
Just read it from the wikipedia article:
states that need to take further action for the treaty to enter into force: China, Egypt, India, Iran, Israel, North Korea, Pakistan, United States
Anyway, it’s rich how people get angry now that Russia is doing exactly what the US is.
Would you be angry if Russia starts nuclear testing? Because that is what it seems their intent is. I don’t think anyone is mad about the document itself, rather what their actions signify.

I honestly don’t care about Russia’s nuclear posturing. It’s just PR on their side. They can nuke siberia as much as they want for all I care.
