Research groups including Nagasaki University make 22 recommendations to reduce the risk of nuclear use. The report states that ``nuclear deterrence'' may ultimately increase the risk.

The United States has made 22 recommendations, including that the United States should propose an agreement with China and North Korea to ban low-yield "tactical" nuclear weapons.

The research was completed at the end of last year, and the research group compiled and published a report.
