Senior Fellow Peter Huessy joined The John Batchelor Show with Rick Fisher to discuss the unprecedented expansion of Chinese and Russian nuclear forces.
On The John Batchelor Show, Peter Huessy and Rick Fisher warn of unprecedented nuclear threats from China and Russia. Fisher highlights China’s rapid expansion, including hundreds of missile silos and DF-61 mobile missiles, and warns China could deploy 6,000 to 8,000 warheads by 2035. Huessy describes Russia’s modernized arsenal, including the multiple-warhead Sarmat ICBM, and argues that both China and Russia treat nuclear forces as tools of coercion rather than deterrence alone, sharply raising global proliferation risks.
Peter Huessy is a Senior Fellow at the Gold Institute for International Strategy, a Washington D.C. based foreign policy and defense think tank.
