Washington - President Barack Obama said on Monday that a revamped US nuclear strategy would narrow the conditions in which nuclear weapons would be used, even in self-defence, the New York Times said on its website.
The president told the newspaper in an interview that exceptions would be carved out for "outliers like Iran and North Korea" that have either violated or renounced the nuclear proliferation treaty.
Obama will unveil a retooled US nuclear strategy on Tuesday that he has signalled will call for reducing the size and role of the country's atomic weapons stockpile. - Reuters
