PREVIEW — Peter Huessy — China Adopts Russia's Tactical Nuclear Doctrine. Peter Huessy analyzes the rapid expansion of non-strategic nuclear arsenals by Russia and China, documenting Beijing's strategic adoption of Moscow's"escalate to win" doctrine emphasizing tactical battlefield nuclear weapons. Huessy explains that China is systematically developing tactical nuclear capabilities explicitly designed to function as instruments of military coercion and diplomatic leverage intended to deter American military intervention in potential Taiwan conflict scenarios. Huessy emphasizes that this doctrinal shift represents a fundamental escalation in regional nuclear threat posture, creating unprecedented strategic instability and raising the prospect of tactical nuclear weapons employment in conventional military operations contrary to decades of international non-use norms.
