War 2.0
United
States intelligence and Strategic Command (STRATCOM) are working on a
report evaluating the probability of the Russian and Chinese
leadership to survive in the event of a nuclear strike, according to
a section of the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).
Congress
wants the document to contain descriptions of "the location
and description of above-ground and underground facilities important
to the political and military leadership survivability, command and
control, and continuity of government programs and activities of each
respective country."
Meanwhile,
on Friday, Trump ordered the Pentagon to prepare another document, a
Nuclear Posture Review, aimed at assessing the readiness of the US
nuclear deterrence forces.
Previously,
Trump hinted at the possible removal of anti-Russian sanctions in
exchange for a bilateral nuclear arms reduction agreement.
