However‚ the popular way to create energy by burning fossil fuels causes some serious problems to our environment. So it is really a need for another energy resource. Hence‚ nuclear power can be the best since it contains advantages of higher efficiency of energy but lower pollution to our world. The first and also the most

The record of debate on testing during negotiations reflects the depth of American concern that testing will lead to unstable nuclear escalation and the lengths the U.S. went to in order to deter
