Reply to comment by atomfullerene in How do fusion scientists expect to produce enough Tritium to sustain D-T fusion (see text)? by DanTheTerrible

If you can breed fuel for a reactor, you can inherently breed fuel for a weapon too. Any spent fission fuel can in theory be reprocessed, and have material diverted for weapons purposes.

But that's why organizations like the IAEA closely monitor fuel cycles for proliferation concerns.
