U.S. nuclear deterrence policy ‘refinement of conventional weapons, nuclear upgrade, linkage to NATO quad’


The U.S. Biden administration’s nuclear policy suppresses the new arms race, discloses it as ‘refinement of conventional weapons and upgrades existing nuclear weapons’, and based on the Korean Washington Declaration, a model for nuclear deterrence, NATO and Quad Indo-Pacific.
In a speech at the annual meeting of the Arms Control Association, White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said, “Reviving discussions on arms control among nuclear-weapon member states of the UN Security Council, including China, and providing a basis for avoiding unplanned conflicts, such as advance notification of missile tests, is essential.” “Rather than entering a new arms race, we aim to maintain nuclear deterrence by supplementing it with new technologies, from precision strike conventional weapons to technological updates to existing nuclear complexes,” he said. did.
Adviser Sullivan's speech released by Voice of America (VOA) said, "The nuclear order established during the Cold War has come under more strain than at any point since the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962." “It came out by making greater progress than reducing the U.S. and theoretically enabling the installation of nuclear warheads on cruise missiles and other weapons.”
Adviser Sullivan cited China and Russia as major nuclear threats and said, “The nuclear threat from North Korea and Iran is also increasing.” signed the 'Washington Declaration' reaffirming the non-proliferation goal of the
VOA said, "Adviser Sullivan said that the US government is working to protect the world from these nuclear threats and prevent an arms race, and as part of that strategy, emphasized the US extended deterrence capability." He cited the 'Washington Declaration' announced at the recent US-Korea summit as an example."
Adviser Sullivan's deterrence policy stated that "the United States is focused on strengthening and modernizing its nuclear capabilities, even with its North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies," adding that "all new initiatives that fall into these two categories, from activating our domestic nuclear program to strengthening our foreign alliances, Measures are necessary all by themselves,” he said.
“Combining the two helps achieve the strategic stability goal we have always sought,” he said. I will show you,” he said.
Through this, he revealed the US nuclear military competitive advantage system linked to NATO and Quad as a major strategy.
"When it comes to increasing nuclear capabilities in Russia and China, it is important to recognize that deterrence must be comprehensive," Sullivan said in his book on Nuclear Deterrence Methods. I believe you have a type,” he said.
The New York Times commented on Sullivan's speech, saying, "For the first time, the United States' response to China's rapid military buildup has been made clear." said.
“His efforts to draw China into arms control negotiations are unlikely to succeed any time soon. So far, Chinese officials have refused to even discuss an agreement to limit work on nuclear weapons. “Tensions between the US and China have remained high after months of resentment and frozen high-level contacts. China has returned to the negotiating table on some issues, but has taken a tougher stance on other issues, complicating the “thawing” in US-China relations that President Biden predicted in May. China questioned the sincerity of Washington when it said it wanted a warmer relationship.”
The Arms Control Association, where Sullivan gave a speech on the new nuclear policy of arms control, is a non-partisan organization advocating a non-proliferation agreement.
At a joint press conference at the Korea-US summit, President Yoon said, “The two countries agreed to hold an immediate summit meeting in the event of a nuclear attack by North Korea, and through this, take a swift, overwhelming, and decisive response using all the capabilities of the alliance, including the US nuclear weapons. I promised," he said on the 26th.
Kim Tae-hyo, deputy head of national security at the presidential office, said in a briefing on the Washington Declaration on April 26, “The Korean people will feel that they are living while sharing nuclear weapons with the United States.”
