Trump calls for resumption of nuclear weapons tests ahead of meeting with Xi
US President Donald Trump's order to immediately resume the testing of nuclear weapons is largely targeted at nuclear powers China and Russia. It is still unclear if Mr Trump is referring to a nuclear weapons test or a test of a nuclear-capable weapons system. Mr Trump's demand came just minutes ahead of his meeting with Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, which signalled a warming of relations between the two superpowers. CNA speaks to Wu Xinbo, Director of the Center for American Studies at Fudan University.
