US secret nuclear plan full of insanity

China Daily  

The US Capitol building is shrouded in haze in Washington, DC, the United States, on June 7, 2023. US President Joe Biden's approval in March of a highly classified nuclear strategy that is aimed at countering the "China threat", first exposed by The New York Times' David Sanger on Aug 20, is an insane act of provocation, and a threat to the world peace. The goal of the "Nuclear Employment Guidance" is to prepare the United States for possible coordinated nuclear challenges from China, Russia and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Back in June, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg claimed the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is mulling increasing the number of nuclear weapons to counter the alleged threat from Russia and China. It may also prompt China to strengthen its minimum deterrence strategy to prevent the US and NATO from blackmailing it or any other country by threatening to launch a nuclear war.
