Finnish President Alexander Stubb stated that we have entered a "new era of nuclear weapons" after Donald Trump announced the resumption of nuclear tests.

The President of Finland, Alexander Stubb, emphasized in a speech in Helsinki that we have entered a "new era of nuclear weapons," following Donald Trump's announcement regarding the intention to resume nuclear tests. Stubb mentioned that the "logic of deterrence" and "strategic stability among superpowers" are changing, and the importance of nuclear weapons is increasing.

Trump's announcement has generated global concerns, considering that the U.S. has not conducted nuclear tests since 1992. In the context of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, nuclear rhetoric has returned to the forefront, with Russia recently conducting nuclear weapon tests. Stubb highlighted the necessity for Finland, which joined NATO in 2023, to collaborate with its allies to strengthen deterrence capacity and control escalation.
