Biden confirms shift in US nuclear strategy to prioritize countering China's growing military capabilities

According to recent reports, President Biden has approved a highly classified nuclear strategic plan for the United States. The plan is believed to be a response to the growing nuclear capabilities of China, which the Pentagon expects to rival those of the US and Russia. The White House has not publicly announced the approval of the revised strategy, but two senior administration officials have alluded to it in recent speeches. The plan is so highly classified that no electronic copies exist, and only a limited number of hard copies are distributed to select national security officials. An unclassified notification is expected to be sent before Biden leaves office.
