Biden's Classified Nuclear Strategy Targets China's Expansion

While not officially announced, a revised plan named 'Nuclear Employment Guidance' redefines Washington's deterrent approach. Congress is expected to receive an unclassified notification before Biden's term ends.

U.S. President Joe Biden approved a highly classified nuclear strategic plan in March, redirecting Washington's deterrence strategy toward China's nuclear expansion, according to the New York Times.

The White House has not publicly disclosed the approval of the revised strategy, named 'Nuclear Employment Guidance.' An unclassified notification to Congress is anticipated before Biden's tenure concludes.

Two senior administration officials have subtly mentioned the strategy revision in recent speeches. This strategy undergoes updates approximately every four years, as reported by the newspaper.
