Trump’s ‘Golden Dome’ Riles Nuclear-Armed Foes
By: Austin Ramzy, Thomas Grove, Timothy W. Martin for the WSJ
President Trump’s “Golden Dome” plan has riled the three countries whose weapons technology poses the greatest threat to American territory, with China, Russia and North Korea claiming the missile-defense project is driving a dangerous new arms race.
Trump wants a Golden Dome shield in place by the end of his term, which would combine ground-based interceptors with satellites to guard U.S. territory against high-tech threats, including hypersonic missiles. The Chinese, North Koreans and Russians are all developing such missiles, as well as new weapons intended to evade U.S. defenses and combat America in outer space. The three are also increasingly helping each other militarily. North Korea slammed the Golden Dome on Tuesday as the “largest arms-buildup plan in history.”
