At the same time, no significant steps are being taken to reduce the worldwide arsenal of almost 30,000 nuclear weapons now possessed by the US, Russia, China, France, Israel, Britain, India, Pakistan, and perhaps North Korea. A global holocaust is just as possible now, through mistakes or misjudgments, as it was during the depths of the Cold War.
同时，在削减由美国、俄罗斯、中国、法国、以色列、英国、印度、巴基斯坦、也许还有北朝鲜等国家拥有的30000多枚核武器方面也没有采取切实有效的步骤。当前，由于错误或判断失误而发生全球性核屠杀的可能性比起冷战时代毫不逊色。
