Abstract
The US Senate's rejection of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) last month represented more of a political statement than a technological decision. Right-wing Republican senators made no secret of their distaste for any initiative backed by the Democratic President Bill Clinton. Many of those senators – notably North Carolina's Jesse Helms, who holds the powerful position of chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee – also used the vote to confirm their long-held views that America should pull back from its international obligations.
