Soviet Union to resume testing after U S blast in 1987
The Kremlin said it will end its unilateral nuclear test ban after the first American explosion expected in 1987, warning that extending the moratorium could threaten Soviet security. Gorbachev urged renewed talks on a joint ban and nuclear monitors were set up by a U S private group and the Soviet Academy of Sciences. A separate report from Des Moines described a railcar carrying nuclear waste diverted to Minnesota before continuing to Washington state.
