Pentagon Rewrites Nuclear Strategy to Prepare for Regional Conflicts with China and Russia

The US Defense Department is rewriting its nuclear strategy to prepare for potential regional wars with China and Russia. According to an exclusive NBC News report, a classified framework is being drafted by Elbridge Colby, the Defense Department's policy chief.

The new plan focuses on shorter-range tactical nuclear weapons, which are seen as more suitable for regional conflicts. This shift in strategy comes as tensions between the US and its adversaries continue to rise.

While the details of the classified framework remain unclear, this move marks a significant departure from the previous approach, which emphasized long-range nuclear capabilities.
