Unveiling Biden's Nuclear Strategy: Addressing the Rising Challenge from China

Published on 20 August 2024 at 17:12

In March, U.S. President Joe Biden authorized a highly classified nuclear strategic plan that marks a significant shift in Washington's deterrent approach, focusing on China's growing nuclear capabilities, according to a report by the New York Times. The White House did not publicly disclose Biden's approval of the updated strategy, known as the "Nuclear Employment Guidance." An unclassified notification regarding this revision is anticipated to be submitted to Congress before Biden's term concludes. Recently, two senior administration officials hinted at the strategy update in their speeches, with the plan typically being revised every four years.
