What the Trump-Putin Summit Means for Global Security & U.S. Nuclear Strategy

Following the recent meeting in Alaska between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, Unconventional’s Naveed Jamali joins CNN’s Omar Jimenez to offer expert insight on American nuclear deterrence strategy.

This conversation follows a historic milestone, as Naveed recently became the first journalist to film all three legs of America’s nuclear triad: bombers, ICBMs, and ballistic missile submarines.

For Naveed, this story is personal. Years ago, he worked undercover against Russian military intelligence. He's seen firsthand the stakes of deterrence and the high cost of failure. Now, he's able to tell the other side of that story— the quiet professionalism and commitment that make deterrence work.

That commitment comes down not to the weapons, but to the people. Young women and men who serve without fanfare, standing watch in missile fields, flying long missions in the B-2, and patrolling the ocean’s depths for months in SSBNs. They keep the world safe every day.

Unconventional is honored to be trusted to share their story.

This segment aired on 8/16. It is shared with permission from CNN.
