I think you are refering to the 1963 Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. On August 5, 1963, after more than eight years of difficult negotiations, the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union signed the Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.
The Treaty:
prohibits nuclear weapons tests or other nuclear explosions under water, in the atmosphere, or in outer space
allows underground nuclear tests as long as no radioactive debris falls outside the boundaries of the nation conducting the test
pledges signatories to work towards complete disarmament, an end to the armaments race, and an end to the contamination of the environment by radioactive substances.
They would reduce the amount of nuclear arms in the United States and Russia.
Flexible Response is a type of defense strategy of the United States and itÕs enforced by John F. Kennedy in 1961. This defense strategy is giving the United States the capability to use nuclear arms in full-spectrum warfare.

Yes. In great abundance and with a variety of potential yields.
Yes they do have the most countries with nuclear arms but it does not compare with the united sates of America having a enough atomic and nuclear weapons to blow up the planet at least ten times over. it's scary to even think about but it's a fact that we have to live with regardless i just wonder if the united sates will ever use those weapons against the rest of the world.
SALT II pledged the nations to limit nuclear arms production.
The US and the Soviet Union were able to relate to each other at the United Nations. They made agreements on arms control.
The nuclear arms race began after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan in August of 1945. This would effectively begin the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.
The nuclear arms race was a competition for supremacy in nuclear warfare between the United States, the Soviet Union, and their respective allies during the Cold War. Starting with the scientific breakthroughs of the 1930s which made their development possible, and continuing through the nuclear arms race and nuclear testing of the Cold War, the issues of proliferation and possible use for terrorism still remain in the early 21st century.
No, it is highly unlikely that the United States will use nuclear arms against Libya.
