Trump Still Has His Finger on the Nuclear Button. This Must Change

The time has come to take the nuclear football away from this president-and all the presidents that come after him Anyone who watched the disturbing events on Capitol Hill and President Donald Trump’s outrageous role as ringleader of the riot, must comprehend a crucial and terrifying fact: The president of the United States is unhinged and a threat not only to democracy, but to our survival.

Missile Defense and the Arms Race

Within weeks of taking office, President Joe Biden and his team will be confronted with dozens of pivotal choices. An under-the-radar but consequential decision facing the new administration will be whether and how to move forward with Trump-era plans to expand the U.S. national missile defense footprint with new sea-based missiles that can shoot down long-range ballistic missiles.

Evaluating the State of Nuclear Danger in Southern Asia

China, India, and Pakistan are building out force structures. China and India are moving forward to employ their own assets in space that can be employed for nuclear as well as conventional warfare. Pakistan is likely to rely on commercial observation satellites and China for these purposes. Missile defense capabilities face a host of problems, and yet India is deploying them, much to Pakistan’s discomfort. There is ample evidence that the trend line of deterrence strengthening measures is growing steadily in Southern Asia

Restoring the Effectiveness of the JCPOA: Principles and Approaches. A View from Russia

The irreversible aspects in connection to the restoration of the JCPOA include the additional centrifuge knowhow and engineering expertise acquired by Iran and new “non-nuclear” sanctions imposed by the US, which may be impossible to lift for domestic political reasons. The uncertainties on the political horizon will impose a narrow time frame for achieving at least a limited early success. It is important that all the parties abide by a certain set of principles

Why the Pentagon must think harder about inadvertent escalation

The conventional capabilities that have enabled the United States to reduce its reliance on nuclear weapons have also increased the risk of misperception that could spark a nuclear war. The Pentagon’s newly released response is titled “Managing Risks of Nuclear Escalation.” This document is deeply concerned with one particular escalation risk: that the United States’ nuclear-armed adversaries — Russia, China and North Korea — may underestimate U.S. resolve or capabilities

Why Was Iran’s Top Nuclear Scientist Assassinated?

The assassination of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the leader of Iran’s suspended program to develop nuclear weapon capabilities, was less about preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons than it was about embarrassing the current Iranian government and impeding it from negotiating a rapprochement with U.S. President-elect Joe Biden’s incoming administration. The best that can be practically hoped for now is that Iranian leaders will resist temptations to play into the hands of the assassins and instead explore with Biden’s administration mutual steps to revive the JCPOA

Revitalizing Nonproliferation Cooperation With Russia and China

​The record of the global nuclear nonproliferation regime has been impressive, defying dire predictions of a world with many nuclear-armed states. Since North Korea acquired nuclear weapons nearly 30 years ago, no additional country has done so. Many factors explain that positive record, but one of those factors has been the ability of the United States to work constructively with Russia and China from time to time in support of shared nonproliferation goals.

Trump Failed to Achieve his Iran Goals: Fitzpatrick

Mark Fitzpatrick, an associate fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), says Donald Trump achieved “none of his goals” by quitting the 2015 nuclear deal, noting that Trump “only made the situation more dangerous.”

Living With the Nuclear Prohibition Treaty: First, Do No Harm

The UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons will neither rid the world of nuclear weapons nor leave it more vulnerable to war, despite the hopes and fears of its staunchest proponents and opponents.

5 Steps for the Next President to Head Off a Nuclear Catastrophe

To the horror of experts, 30 years after the Cold War, the global risk from nuclear weapons is actually getting worse. Here’s how a new administration can turn that around As fires rage across the West and the coronavirus continues its deadly march, President Donald Trump tweets and fulminates but refuses to take charge. He denies climate change; on the pandemic, he leaves to the states his clear responsibility to protect the people of America.

The Extension of a Nuclear Treaty Between the U.S. and Russia Would Be a Crucial, Responsible Step

George P. Shultz served as secretary of state (1982 to 1989) and treasury secretary (1972 to 1974). William J. Perry, former defense secretary (1994 to 1997), is founder of the William J. Perry Project on the threat of nuclear weapons. Sam Nunn, former Democratic chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee (1987 to 1995), is co-chairman of the Nuclear Threat Initiative

Nonproliferation Trends. What’s News, What’s True?

It should be possible for the United States and Russia to reiterate in one fashion or another the basic tenet that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought. If they are unable to lend their support to this fundamental principle, any comments they might make about the enduring value of the NPT at the next Review Conference will have a hollow ring, writes William C. Potter, Director of the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies at the Monterey Institute of International Studies (MIIS)
