U.S.-China Strategic Stability

Mon. April 6th, 2009
Washington, D.C.

2009 Carnegie International Nonproliferation Conference IMGXYZ1188IMGZYX The U.S.-China strategic relationship is entering a period of new dynamism and uncertainty, as China builds up and diversifies its nuclear "counter-deterrent" and as the United States builds down its nuclear forces but also diversifies its strategic military toolkit with missile defenses, etc. How can a stable relationship be preserved in this dynamic period? What kind of a strategic relationship should the U.S. want and what kind of strategic relationship can it have with China? And vice versa?
