The reason is Russia, China and North Korea

Russia, China and North Korea are not very interested in arms control, said the White House's National Security Adviser Pranai Vishik. In addition, countries are increasingly cooperating with Iran in ways that are contrary to peace and stability, heightening regional tensions and threatening the United States and its partners.

Vaddi says that in the US they focus on a “better approach” and try “creative solutions”. However, he warned that if developments regarding adversaries' arsenals did not change, the United States would soon reach a point where it would have to increase its nuclear arsenal. Its purpose is to ensure the possibility of achieving prevention and other goals in the future.
