Nuclear weapons continue to pose a real threat to humanity and other forms of life on Earth. International relations scholars and policymakers share the belief that the power and destructiveness of nuclear weapons prevent their use by friend and foe alike. So the real question becomes: what are nuclear weapons for? Nuclear weapons are defined as a volatile device whose destructive force comes from nuclear reactions, either fission or a combination of fission and fusion. Both reactions release enormous amounts of energy from fairly small amounts of matter. Nuclear weapons have significantly changed the way war is fought. Added to these more dominant weapons are means to control and countermeasure this power. Nuclear weapons have changed the way the world views war. The development of nuclear weapons began innocently as a physical marvel, but became a source of constant fear among many countries. It is understandable that some countries believe that it is necessary to continue nuclear proliferation. Basing the security of your country on the threat of killing tons of millions of innocent people, even billions, and risking the destruction of civilization. This confidence has no moral justification and deserves the strongest condemnation. Nuclear proliferation is the distribution of nuclear weapons, nuclear technology and information to states not recognized as "nuclear weapon states" by the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. In my opinion, when a country develops nuclear weapons, everything intensifies, the economy, the military, and one could even say that the paranoia also intensifies. With this continued nuclear proliferation effort, countries began to fall to the middle of paper. .....we understand the attraction of nuclear weapons for those who seek power for the purposes of manipulation or blackmail. Terrorists can either seize an existing weapon, which is extremely difficult to do. Or they could create a facility to make one. Obtaining nuclear weapons by individuals or groups is doubtful because the materials are difficult to obtain and handle. Military weapons and nuclear power plants and facilities are also closely monitored. It may not be necessary for terrorists to obtain a weapon. Instead, they could create immense fear and panic if they obtained information on how to create these weapons. Ten countries have approximately 17,134 nuclear warheads armed and ready to be launched at their whim. The United States alone has approximately 7,650 nuclear warheads, each with a power twenty times greater than that of Hiroshima and Nagasaki..
