Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov (pictured) said on Tuesday that Moscow has seen "signs" that Washington is preparing for or may have already conducted preparations for nuclear tests in Nevada.

The deputy foreign minister underlined that Russian testing sites need to be prepared for the possibility of resuming nuclear program in the country, stressing that Moscow would only consider conducting nuclear tests if Washington were to do so first.

Ryabkov explained that Moscow is "legally" revoking the ratification of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Agreement (CTBT) to "balance with the status with the United States."
