This is unfortunately not a correct portrayal of current circumstances. It is the US that said we were going to draw down to zero nuclear weapons and began this in 1992. Russia and China have been going through aggressive nuclear modernization programs with a broad diversity of new capabilities. It is the US that is enmeshed in its own 30 outdated bureaucratic tangle. And this started with GHWB and everyone subsequent who thought that the American conventional superiority that conquered the middle east and saved the day for democracy in Ukraine was making nukes obsolete.
We have a lot of nukes, but they are aging out and we are struggling to figure out how to modernize and even when capabilities we actually need in the present international environment.
Great, excuse me while I 🤮
