Should Pakistan Sign The CTBT?

[Hum Sa Ho To Samne Aaye]

This must be an old topic now but I want to hear the reasons for signing or rejecting the CTBT.

Simple answer,
India signs too. They both sign it together, everybody is happy, masla khatam

NO!!, else we'ld jeopardize our capibility to test the reliability of the nuclear arsenal...

Pak should not sign CTBT, whether any other country signs it or not. In the past few months the international media has referred to Pak as being a nuke power so this or that can’t be done etc. Also according to the agreement other member countries can inspect each other any time, of course the information is not to be shared. However I can’t imagine India or Israel inspecting Pakistan.

I agree with Sabah, we should not sign CTBT, and especially not under any pressure from any country. The government should take the nation into confidence before embarking on such a major decision.
