According to a report by The New York Times, senior officials in the Biden administration have warned that with Russia, China, and North Korea accelerating their development of nuclear weapons and related technologies, the U.S. may have to seek an expansion of its nuclear stockpile to address potential future conflicts. The White House National Security Council official, Vade, suggested a shift in U.S. policy to push Moscow and Beijing to return to negotiations on Western nuclear weapon control.
