And now he's saying it when being asked by reporters.

> Q: What prompted you to announce you're resuming nuclear testing right before the meeting with Xi?

> TRUMP: They seem to all be nuclear testing. We have more nuclear weapons than anybody. We don't do testing. We halted it many years ago, but w/ others doing testing I think it's appropriate we do also

I think he's pretty explicitly saying that he wants to start doing testing we aren't currently doing.

North Korea did the last critical nuclear test in 2017. Others have not been testing for decades.

I think he is saying something confused and vague.
