India, Pakistan continue nuclear facility list exchanges for stability.
India and Pakistan have continued their longstanding practice of exchanging lists of nuclear installations on January 1, adhering to a bilateral agreement that prohibits attacks on each other’s atomic facilities. This exchange, executed simultaneously through diplomatic channels in New Delhi and Islamabad, marks the 35th consecutive year of such communications, despite the strained relations following military hostilities last May. The agreement, which has been in effect since January 27, 1991, serves as a critical measure for maintaining strategic stability and preventing escalation between the two nations, underscoring the significance of dialogue amidst ongoing tensions.
