India Commissions New Nuclear Submarine INS Arighat

News summary

The commissioning of the INS Arighat, India's second Arihant-class nuclear submarine, enhances India's deterrence capabilities against China and Pakistan amid rising regional tensions. This submarine, equipped with advanced ballistic missile technology, is part of India's strategy to counter China's expanding military presence, particularly its nuclear-armed Type 094 submarines in the Indian Ocean. Concurrently, China has criticized U.S. nuclear strategy revisions that focus on its growing arsenal, urging the U.S. to reduce its nuclear stockpile and engage in disarmament talks. The U.S. has reportedly updated its nuclear employment guidance, reflecting concerns over China's increasing nuclear capabilities, projected to rival U.S. and Russian stockpiles in the coming decade. High-level talks between U.S. and Chinese officials aim to manage strategic rivalry and prevent miscalculations, although concerns remain about the rapid expansion of China's nuclear arsenal. Both nations emphasize the need for maintaining communication to avoid conflict amid escalating military tensions in East Asia.
