NTI’s Lynn Rusten on Defense Department’s New Strategy for Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction
The DoD’s new CWMD strategy, last updated in 2014, comes at a time when longstanding norms against nuclear use are being tested.
North Korea’s latest ballistic missile test, a medium-range
missile launched into the sea on the eve of President Trump’s first meeting
with Chinese President Xi Jinping, is
the latest in a string of ever-more provocative actions by the North Korean
regime.
The Nuclear Threat Initiative, in cooperation with the James
Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies, has valuable resources available to
the public and the news media to better understand the capacity, background,
and history of the North Korean nuclear program.
