On this Back Story Dana Lewis speaks to UK (Ret) Rear Admiral John Gower, who says Russia is increasing the nuclear threat level as President Putin pledged to move tactical nuclear weapons to neighbouring Belarus.
Gower also speaks about why nuclear submarines for Australia are needed, but cautions about why arming those SSNs with cruise missiles, if indeed the U.S. proceeds with rearming it's cruise missile arsenal with nuclear warheads raises risks.
