NNSA, under the Department of Energy, is the federal agency responsible for building, testing, and maintaining the U.S. nuclear arsenal.
At an upcoming meeting in the White House, representatives of the NNSA and the Ministry want to abandon tests using explosive nuclear materials, the material says.
Instead, they will try to guide the White House to a realistic plan that does not involve undermining, writes CNN.
At the same time, the channel adds that Trump still has the right to order tests if he does not agree with the opinion of federal government experts.
It will be recalled that Donald Trump instructed the Pentagon to immediately resume nuclear weapons tests after the statements of the ruler of the Russian Federation about the testing of the Burevesnik cruise missile with a nuclear power plant.
Putin instructed to begin preparations for potential nuclear weapons tests after finding out what the USA would do in this direction.
