 "US-China Nuclear Rivalry and the Taiwan Question"

For many decades, the U.S.-China nuclear balance had no particular consequence, and was overshadowed by acute crises, such as nuclear proliferation in North Korea or potentially in Iran. However, in the last five years, nuclear tensions between the U.S. and China have accelerated dramatically. This presentation will summarize and assess thinking on both sides of the Pacific regarding the current state of this new superpower nuclear rivalry. It will put a particular spotlight on a new set of recommendations by American strategists during 2023-24 that call for, not only a major U.S. nuclear forces overhaul and buildup, but also the hardening of base facilities in the Asia-Pacific in preparation for possible nuclear war-fighting scenarios.
