Show Notes
After the Cold War, America and its allies acted to reduce the proliferation and existence of nuclear weapons around the world, halting our own production and development. But our enemies did not. Instead, Russia and China set out to rapidly develop modern nuclear arsenals that out maneuver our own dated, rigid stockpile. Our credible strategic deterrence of our enemies is waning, fast. The Parliament makes confusing global geopolitics and American national security accessible. In this episode, Darion invites Heritage Foundation Nuclear Expert, Bob Peters to the show. Darion and Bob discuss how we fell so far behind in modernizing our nuclear arsenal, and why that is an existential threat. The bottom line: peace through strength does not stop at nukes.
