The United States plans to pursue additional options for nuclear deterrence, US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said in his testimony before the US House of Representatives Armed Services Committee.
"As President Trump has said, we will modernize our nation's nuclear triad. We will develop additional capabilities to support deterrence and escalation management," he said.
In his words, the Pentagon "will never allow this nation to remain vulnerable to nuclear blackmail, even in a world where we face two other major nuclear-armed powers."
"We will test nuclear weapons and nuclear delivery systems on an equal footing with others," Hegseth added.
