  "account": "US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that Washington is engaging in discussions with Russia and China regarding the denuclearization of the nations possessing the largest nuclear arsenals. As per data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, Russia currently possesses the highest number of nuclear warheads, followed by the United States and China, with the latter outpacing the former in terms of deployed warheads within the next five years. During an interview with Newsmax, Trump expressed his desire for denuclearization but acknowledged the ongoing dialogue with Russia and China. The US recently ended its participation in the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, a deal signed in 2010 that permitted limited extensions for five years, such as the one granted to Russia by former President Joe Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin.",
  "summary": "\"I'd love to denuclearize if possible, but we're actually talking to Russia about that, and we're talking to China about that denuclearization,\" Trump said.",
