Arms-control efforts can’t ignore the threat from Russia and China
about America’s nuclear deterrent breaks along two lines. One views the discussion through the lens of arms control. The other focuses on the level of deterrence required in a world in which America will soon face two potential adversaries with nuclear forces as big as its own: Russia and China., an arms-reduction treaty between America and Russia which took effect in 2011, and with negotiating further reductions in warheads.
An effective deterrent requires the capability to target what potential enemy leaders value most. As autocrats, Mr Putin’s and Mr Xi’s priorities are essentially the same: to stay in power, to preserve their regime, to intimidate their neighbours and to support their war machines.
