China is undertaking an unprecedented strategic nuclear breakout and refuses to engage in productive discussions about its nuclear intentions. Meanwhile, Russia has announced it will no longer observe the Treaty Between the United States and the Russian Federation on Measures for the Further Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms (New START). Moscow has since violated New START’s verification provisions and could have grown its stockpiles of nuclear warheads beyond the treaty’s limits.
The National Institute for Public Policy (NIPP) recently published A New Strategic Review for a New Age, which concludes that the US has a legal right and strategic imperative to terminate the New START Treaty, which expires in February 2026. The study also recommends ways the US can adapt its nuclear forces to increase the credibility of its deterrent and maintain peace.
Join Dr. Rebeccah L. Heinrichs, senior fellow at Hudson Institute, and Dr. Keith Payne, president and cofounder of NIPP, for discussion about the report’s analysis and recommendations.
