What did Donald Trump said?

Earlier, Donald Trump made a shocking revelation that China, Pakistan are among the countries that are testing nuclear weapons. He stated that the US, like other nations, will test nuclear weapons and stressed that the move was necessary as several nations, including Russia, China, North Korea, and Pakistan, are carrying out nuclear tests.

"Russia's testing, and China's testing, but they don't talk about it. You know, we're an open society. We're different. We talk about it. We have to talk about it, because otherwise you people are gonna report, they don't have reporters that are gonna be writing about it. We do. No, we're gonna test, because they test and others test. And certainly North Korea's been testing. Pakistan's been testing," President Trump said.
