The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) is an international treaty that aims to ban all nuclear weapon test explosions and any other nuclear explosions. The treaty was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on September 10, 1996, but has not yet entered into force because it requires ratification by 44 specific countries that are nuclear-capable or part of the nuclear supply group.
