A situation in which neither side could logically see any gain in attacking the other. Stability in this context has three dimensions : first, that it is unlikely that the balance could be altered to the point that one side believed a deliberate attack would be profitable; second, that massive nuclear exchange would not develop as a result of hasty, ill-founded or desperate decisions during a crisis; and third, that the maintenance of mutual deterrence does not require a competitive resource-consuming arms race. 2, record 6, English, - stable%20mutual%20deterrence

Situation dans laquelle aucune des deux puissances en cause n'a rien à gagner en attaquant l'autre. La stabilité qui résulte de cette situation comporte trois conditions : en premier lieu, il faut que l'équilibre ne puisse être modifié de telle façon qu'une des puissances devienne convaincue qu'une attaque nucléaire préméditée pourrait lui être profitable; en second lieu, il doit n'exister aucun risque qu'en temps de crise internationale une guerre nucléaire massive puisse être déclenchée à la suite d'une décision précipitée, irréfléchie ou désespérée; enfin, le maintien de l'équilibre ne doit pas entraîner une course aux armements dont le coût serait mutuellement épuisant.
