Growing Concerns: Is Pakistan’s Nuclear Arsenal a Global Threat?

Reports from the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists’ ‘Nuclear Notebook 2025’ provide evidence that Pakistan’s control of its nuclear weapons is akin to a child possessing a loaded gun. This report underscores that Pakistan is deceiving the world and orchestrating a clandestine nuclear supply network, secretly selling its nuclear assets to other countries. The Notebook also highlights a rapid increase in Pakistan’s uranium enrichment efforts, potentially for sale, along with an expansion of its nuclear arsenal. Additionally, the actions and statements of Pakistan’s leaders, including Field Marshal Asim Munir, raise serious questions about the management and control of the nation’s nuclear capabilities, and whether Pakistan is fit to possess nuclear weapons.
