Given Trump's life long fascination with nuclear-weapons (Remember that when he was growing up for the first 16 years of his life there were regular atmospheric nuclear-tests) I can easily see a strong push for an expanded US nuclear-arsenal coming from the WH.

Defense Updates has put out this video concerning the latest test-launch of India's K-4 SLBM with it this time fired from the INS Arigaat:


India marked a major milestone in its strategic capabilities with the first test of the K-4 submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) from an operational SSBN on November 27. Viewers may note that prior to this, the missile had undergone at least two tests, both conducted using an underwater pontoon.
The nuclear-capable missile, boasting a range of 3,500 km or around 2,175 miles, was launched from INS Arighaat Ballistic Missile Submarine, which entered service earlier this year.
This advancement significantly enhances India’s nuclear triad, bolstering its second-strike capability to deter adversaries while overcoming operational challenges.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes why K-4 SLBM is a game changer for India ?

Yes, with every nation that can even remotely afford nukes going to acquire them. After Russia invaded Ukraine and suffered no major consequences despite the 1994 treaty where Ukraine gave up all the Soviet-era nukes on Ukrainian territory in exchange for territorial guarantees, any remotely sane nation would see that possessing nukes is the only way to avoid someone invading you.
