Obama administration expected to reveal previously secret info on nuclear stockpiles

United States to show some of its nuclear hand

WASHINGTON — U.S. officials say the Obama administration is expected to release a more precise accounting of the Pentagon’s nuclear arsenal Monday.

The release coincides with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s address to a United Nations conference checking up on efforts to contain the spread of nuclear weapons around the world.

The move was the subject of a furious debate within the Obama administration that continued up until just hours before Clinton’s 4 p.m. speech in New York. .
