Dear
@SecPompeo: No one wins a nuclear war, whether the nukes are delivered by intermediate range missiles, sea-launched missiles or bombers. The@realDonaldTrump Administration has made another horrible decision in foreign policy by withdrawing from#INFTreaty.#FridayThoughtshttps://twitter.com/Reuters/status/1157001499165241344 …

If US nuclear missiles return to Britain, as CND's Kate Hudson told The Times, "the government should expect a major response from civil society like the huge protests we saw at Greenham Common in the 1980s."

Today, US and Russia have let
#INFTreaty, the 1st to ban a whole category of nuclear weapons, collapse. We condemn this irresponsible & dangerous decision & urge all states to help end all nuclear weapons by joining the#NuclearBan Treaty. Full reaction: https://bit.ly/31cGxAi -
The US, now unbound from the

This US missile test is another worrying indication that those who raised concerns about terminating the
#INFTreaty were right. We call on the US, Russia, China and all nuclear states to refrain from launching a new nuclear arms race.#NuclearThreathttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/aug/20/russian-china-us-missile-test-arms-race … -

@NATO SG Jens Stoltenberg: Arms control in Europe is eroding, due to Russia’s actions (#INFTreaty), new actors & tech. We must:
Preserve the #NPT; Strengthen nuclear arms control;
Modernise the Vienna Document on military transparency;
Develop new rules for new techpic.twitter.com/ZKErhYNy7U

The
#INFTreaty has collapsed. Why? Because Russia has secretly developed new missile systems that violate the agreement and threaten Europe, repeatedly ignoring US concerns pic.twitter.com/z24i8JAvWRINF Treaty -
Russia has caused the
#INFTreaty to collapse by secretly developing and deploying a treaty-violating missile system which can target Europe’s capitals. Their contempt for the rules based international system threatens European security. UK fully supports@NATO’s responsehttps://twitter.com/jensstoltenberg/status/1157222972794572800 …

The
#INFTreaty treaty is dead, on which sad occasion, a Soviet joke. A Q&A program on the radio. A man calls up. - What should I do if a nuclear war breaks out? - Wrap yourself in a white sheet & slowly crawl to the cemetery. - Why slowly? - In order not to sow panic. -
While Putin publicly vows a symmetrical "quid pro quo" response to the U.S. missile test, military expert Vladimir Evseev suggests that—unlike China—Russia will most likely resort to asymmetrical measures against the United States.

As the US formally withdraws from the
#INFTreaty today, it’s worth revisiting this smart piece by @ElbridgeColby on why we are right to leave it - and what should replace it.https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/global-opinions/wp/2018/10/23/the-inf-treaty-hamstrings-the-u-s-trump-is-right-to-leave-it/ … -
This is, on both sides, a disturbing escalation of a situation that should never be taken lightly. In a time when Americans overwhelmingly want to wind down our military escapades abroad, this spike in aggressive activity should concern us all.

"When something like the
#INFTreaty goes down the drain almost like nothing, it shows you the degree to which people have forgotten the power of these weapons." Great quote by George Shultz, who knows. https://is.gd/euFToY -
Another example of
hypocrisy. The country that abandoned 
global security cornerstone agreements #ABMTreaty,#JCPOA,#INFTreaty,#OpenSkies and refuses to ratify#CTBT is engaged in blatant finger-pointing.

Nuclear weapons are inhumane, immoral and designed to wipe out everything we love. As the US & Russia let the
#INFTreaty collapse, the rest of us have to speak up: The world doesn’t need a new arms race, it needs to end nukes altogether! https://nuclearban.org#nuclearban#TPNW
