Abstract

Considering the war in Ukraine, the complexity of China-United States relations, and the threat of terrorism, the outlook for world security looks worrisome. What's more worrying is the presence of nuclear weapons with no legal guarantee not to be detonated. They are weapons of mass destruction (WMD). Experts believe a single detonation, intentionally or accidentally, "can end the lives of millions of people immediately". There are nearly 13,000 nuclear weapons stored around the world. Imagine what will happen if more than one nuclear weapon were to go off.
