| Summary/Abstract |
On 27 October 2022, the much-awaited Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) of the United States (US) was released in a declassified form, but not as an independent document as it had been issued in the past. It was part of the National Defense Review (NDR) of 2022, as it formed part of a single document comprising the NPR, NDR and The Missile Defense Review (MDR). The NDR of 2022 had assigned four priorities to strengthen America’s deterrence prowess. These priorities are as follows: protecting the homeland, deterring strategic attacks, prevailing in the conflict, and creation of a ‘resilient joint force and defence ecosystem’.
