In @BulletinAtomic, @alxgraef and I explore the implications of the return of land-based standoff missiles to Europe: The dawn of a new missile age warrants an informed debate on how to ease some of the ensuing challenges and prevent worst-case scenarios. https://t.co/fqkJWqJkd2
New piece for @BulletinAtomic with @TimThies about the new #missile age in #Europe.

Very happy @JanaBaldus has joined @theELN team and look forward to working with her on strengthening #NPT and other issues! Do read Jana's first European Leadership Network Commentary on "How NPT members can support justice for victims of nuclear weapons" https://t.co/8QqTKpZa7r
On Dec 4, 2024, as chair of the P5 mechanism, China convened an expert-level P5 meeting in Dubai, UAE. Representatives from the five nuclear-weapons States (China, France, Russia, the UK and the US) attended the meeting. The parties had a candid discussion on nuclear doctrines.
Important comments from DNI Haines here about how greater Russia/China/Iran/DPRK alignment is making nonproliferation much harder, and that the prior US cooperation with Russia and China on this front has broken down.
Excited to be part of this research project alongside great colleagues and to have @IFSHHamburg contributing to this collaboration.

🇺🇸 Basis mit Aegis Ashore zur Abwehr ballistischer Raketen in #Polen eingeweiht. Zur Erinnerung: Das Vorhaben begann 2002 unter der Bush-Administration als Teil einer vorgelagerten US-Raketenabwehr gegen die „Schurkenstaaten“ Iran und Nordkorea.

Das ist eine sehr gut Herleitung, warum eine Taurus-Lieferung an die Ukraine keinen wesentlichen militärischen Nutzen hätte. Unterschreibe ich vorbehaltlos.
Thank you, @FES_Europa, for the kind invitation to present the findings of the 2024 @PeaceReport in Brussels and discuss arms control and disarmament in times of strategic rivalry (and, as it turned out, Trump)!
