U S Set To Resume Tests Kennedy informs nation
President Kennedy announced a resumption of U S atmospheric nuclear tests by late April unless the Soviet Union agrees to a foolproof test ban. He offered to meet Khrushchev at Geneva to sign a ban, urging allied leaders and Congress to support the move amid the East West disarmament talks set to begin March 14 in Geneva. The decision drew praise from Democrats and criticism from Moscow and allies alike as Britain, Japan, and other powers weighed in on the risks and motives behind testing. Kennedy defended the plan, stating it strengthens peace by pressuring the Soviets to accept verifiable limits while warning of dangerous consequences if testing resumes unchecked. He pressed for a tested ban with verification and warned the Soviets bear responsibility for choosing between further tests or disarmament progress.
