Back in 1945 a bunch of countries realized that they had unnecessary huge stockpile of bombs, mines, and chemical weapons after the war. It would had been a real shame if bad actors would pick them up, bad enough that most of it was dumped into the ocean. Taking a minor look into history and we can easily find what happens with larger stockpiles of weapons if they don't get destroyed after wars (or cold wars). They get stolen or sold. They get used for new purposes which originally they never was intended for. I find it a fair case to argue that countries who do not destroy their large stockpiles once the war end are to a degree responsible when the weapons are reused in later conflicts outside their border by people we would classify as bad actors.
