Humanity first met with nuclear weapons in 1945 and faced its great destructiveness
for the first time after bombing in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Since then, nuclear
weapons, which are among the central issues of international security, have become
paranoia for both social scientists and societies, with the beginning of the Cold War
and the increasingly greater powers to equip themselves with nuclear weapons.
Nuclear weapons, which last more than 70 years in our lives, are still one of the
biggest problems of the world, with the world being able to bring the end. Therefore,
in 1968, Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons was signed. Since then,
the treaty has been the cornerstone of international efforts to prevent and ultimately
eliminate the proliferation of these weapons to facilitate the enjoyment of nuclear
energy for peaceful purposes.
In addition, the United States and Russia, the two largest nuclear powers in the world,
signed bilateral agreements that limited their nuclear ammunition. But there are
attempts to terminate those in force. The termination of the agreements of the nuclear
regime may indicate the beginning of a new nuclear arms race between the US and
Russia. As a result of all these developments, the world is facing a new nuclear arms
race and in the light of the current technological developments, it may have more
dangerous consequences than the nuclear race experienced during the Cold War
period.
ÖZ:
ABD ve Rusya arasındaki mevcut nükleer rejimin sonlandırılması ofansif realist
motivasyonlar sonucu nükleer belirsizliğe ve nihayetinde nükleer silahlanma yarışını
artıracaktır. Ayrıca savunma teknolojilerindeki gelişme söz konusu olduğunda
nükleer silahlanma yarışı geri dönülemez bir boyuta taşınabilir.
