Dangers of Nuclear Arms Control Breakdown

The breakdown of nuclear arms control treaties and the rise of new technological advancements in missile systems, such as hypersonic missiles and artificial intelligence, are contributing to a more unstable and dangerous global nuclear arms race. The war in Ukraine, China's increasing nuclear stockpiles, and the expiration of the New START treaty further exacerbate this situation. The lack of communication and cooperation between the major nuclear powers, especially the United States, Russia, and China, has created an unpredictable and delicate balance of three-way deterrence. The urgent need for dialogue and negotiations on arms control is crucial, with hopes that the major powers will engage in talks and prevent an escalation of nuclear tensions.
