After New START: Is the US–Russia–China Nuclear Arms Race Back?
In this episode of Polish Insights on Global Affairs, Agnieszka Bielawska talks to Artur Kacprzyk – expert from the Polish Institute of International Affairs (@PolandPISM) about why NEW Start was terminated, and what comes next in a rapidly changing nuclear landscape.
We unpack the strategic triangle shaping the next decade: Russia’s signaling and modernization, the United States’ growing focus on deterrence across two theatres, and China’s expanding nuclear force—often cited in U.S. projections as moving toward over 1,000 warheads by 2030.
Finally, we look at Europe’s options—from the debate on NATO nuclear sharing to the growing emphasis on UK–France nuclear coordination (the Northwood Declaration)—and what these shifts could mean for Poland’s security planning.
