On September 24, the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) was formally opened for signature at the United Nations in New York. In the following days, 94 countries signed the treaty including the five nuclear-weapon states (the United States, Russia, China, France and Britain) and Israel, one of the three so-called {open_quotes}threshold{close_quotes} states. Although prospects for the CTBT`s formal entry into force remain uncertain because of India`s refusal to sign, the signing of treaty may nevertheless effectively preclude an future nuclear tests.
