Neither China nor the United States has ratified the Comprehensive Nuclear Test-Ban Treaty.

A supercritical experiment differs from an explosive weapons test but still violates the zero-yield standard.

If this is true, it means China has ended its moratorium on nuclear testing.
Under Secretary of State Thomas G. DiNanno, @UnderSecT, "China has conducted nuclear explosive tests, including preparing for tests with designated yields in the hundreds of tons… China has used decoupling – a method to decrease the effectiveness of seismic monitoring – to hide its activities from the world. China conducted one such yield producing nuclear test on June 22, 2020." https://x.com/UnderSecT/status/2019714343135334711?s=20
