Golden Dome Dangers: How Trump’s Scheme Threatens to Make the US Less Safe
- President Donald Trump proposed the Golden Dome missile defense system to be fully operational before his term ends in three years to protect the U.S.
- This proposal follows the 2002 U.S. withdrawal from the ABM Treaty, intended to allow missile defense development against threats from small states like North Korea.
- Experts and leaders including Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping warn that Golden Dome destabilizes global stability and may spur a new nuclear arms race.
- The U.S. currently deploys 44 interceptors, below the former treaty limit of 100, while estimates place Golden Dome's cost at $542 billion—far above Trump's $175 billion claim.
- This missile defense effort risks provoking larger nuclear buildups, increasing conflict chances, and undermining arms control prospects after the New START Treaty expires in February 2026.
