President Biden has signed off on a highly classified plan that shifts America’s nuclear strategy to focus on China as a nuclear threat — and prepare for the possibility that the communist nation could team up with North Korea and Russia against the US, according to a new report.
Biden made the shift in March because the Pentagon believes China’s nuclear arsenal will rival the US and Russia, the New York Times reported Tuesday, citing sources.
The new strategy is called the “Nuclear Employment Guidance” and also readies the US for a possible coordinated threat between China, Russia and North Korea, the newspaper reported. ***
“The President recently issued updated nuclear weapons employment guidance to account for multiple nuclear-armed adversaries, and, in particular, the significant increase in the size and diversity of [China’s] nuclear arsenal,” said Vipin Narang this month when he was still the acting assistant secretary of defense of space policy.*** National Security Council’s senior director for arms control and nonproliferation, Pranay Vaddi, also referred to the top-secret document in June, the Times reported.
The new game plan would focus on “the need to deter Russia, the [China] and North Korea simultaneously,” he said, per the newspaper.

Drat... The secret is out!!!
Biden did not do anything. His handlers did. I’m starting to think they WANT WWIII.
Biden made the shift in March because 2024 IS AN ELECTION YEAR.
That should read, "White House secretly orders US to prepare for nuclear threats from China, Russia and North Korea". Slow Joe can't even order his own ice cream cone, secretly or otherwise...
Pssss… it’s a secret… Pass it on.
They should be careful what they wish for.
If it’s “highly classified,” how is it getting reported? By whom? What is the source? “According to a new report” doesn’t hold water. I remain skeptical.
US nuclear bombs “ good bombs “ ; China’s , Russia’s and Norks’ “ bad bombs . “ Yea , right . Take a look at a map of all the US bases surounding China , or a map of all the NATO countries on Russia’s border .
October surprise?
i dont care how many nuclear weapons you have, if the other side KNOWS you wont use them, they mean nothing. If they tried a “first strike” against the USA, Kamala Harris surrenders, guaranteed. Why this isn’t a campaign issue baffles me..always used to be. That Chinese spy ballon flew directly over Minuteman Silos and Kings Bay, Georgia for a reason.
The most obvious strategic threat that anyone with an IQ over 60 would know and Biden and his democrats are just now worried about it?
After letting our woke military lapse into a state that China could take Taiwan and control the western Pacific and eviscerate every data center and power grid in the US?
National Security State / MIC - bump for later....
Don’t worry. Kamala will fix it.
I thought that balloon story was proven to be bollocks ?
What happpened to the ONE CHINA POLICY . Taiwan is China . They will reunite someday and peacefully . As long as the US continues to surround them with myriad bases one can expect them to ramp up their military capabilities . Can you blame them ?
Not so secretly
He’s at least a decade late, a lot of us could have told him this many years ago.
DOOM!
So, what could be so secret about planning for something so obvious?
