Today the Soviet States of Big Long Now announced it's plans to dismantle 12,350 of it's 15,000 nuclear and biological weapons, bringing the stockpile down to 2,650 weapons.
The main reason to dismantle the stockpiles is due to the aging of the components in the weapons, but it is also to help decrease the common perception that the Soviet States are a threat.
"We are not out to have war or to intimidate other countries, we are trying to keep a small stockpile to help defend our nation in case war is necessary," stated Soviet President Jon Sarkovski in a press release earlier this week.
The dismantling process is expected to be completed in the next ten years.
