Question

(1 point)
O Israel, India, and Pakistan refused to reduce their stock of nuclear weapons.
• The old Soviet Union was unwilling to sign START, the arms-reduction treaty.
• The United States had shared too much nuclear technology with now-hostile countries.
• North Korea had shared dangerous nuclear-weapons plans with India.

Answer 1

The correct answer is: Israel, India, and Pakistan refused to reduce their stock of nuclear weapons.

After the Cold War, while the direct superpower conflict between the US and the Soviet Union diminished, the proliferation of nuclear weapons among other states and the reluctance of countries like Israel, India, and Pakistan to disarm continued to pose a significant threat.
