Nuclear arsenals of various countries in the world during the last 20 years.
From 2006 to 2026, the nuclear arsenals of the United States (from 7.9 thousand to 3.7 thousand warheads) and Russia (from 6.6 thousand to 4.4 thousand) were reduced the most. A less pronounced decrease (both in absolute numbers and in percentages) was recorded in France and Great Britain.
And in the countries that joined the "nuclear club" relatively recently, their arsenals have grown in recent years: in China, the stockpiles of nuclear weapons have increased by 164% over twenty years (although the numbers are modest: from 235 to 620 warheads), in India - 4 times, in Pakistan - a little more than 3 times.
