1/ I’m pleased to share that my latest piece, “Nuclear Security Training: Standards and Resilience Required,” has been published in the new @NTI_WMD edited volume: “Emerging Leaders Offer Bold Ideas for Strengthening Nuclear Security in a Changing World”

[Ali Alkis @AliAlkisTR]

🚨New publication with @PSinovets: “Deterrence, Compellence, or Credibility Fatigue? Russian Nuclear Threats in the War on Ukraine.”

We argue that repeated nuclear signalling has led to credibility fatigue—weakening the impact of such threats.

🚨 New Publication 🚨
My latest piece in the @BulletinAtomic:
“From Zaporizhzhia to Natanz, nuclear piracy is equally dangerous—and illegal.”

🧵 A thread on why this matters:

[François Diaz-Maurin - @francoisdm.bsky.social @francoisdm]

🚨 On Wednesday, the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant was still supplied with electricity by diesel generators, a week after being cut off from power reportedly because of Russian shelling. @ZelenskyyUa called the situation "a threat to everyone."

[François Diaz-Maurin - @francoisdm.bsky.social @francoisdm]

🚨 JUST IN: Existing international humanitarian law prohibiting attacks against nuclear facilities has proven to be a fragile bulwark in Ukraine and Iran. The UN needs reform, @AliAlkisTR writes in @BulletinAtomic.

“If the government allows IAEA [inspections], even in principle, [Iranian officials] need to find a way to sell this idea first to the public.” @AliAlkisTR

[Ali Alkis @AliAlkisTR]

🚨My recent interview with the @BulletinAtomic about the new Cairo agreement between Iran & the IAEA. I emphasized that if Iran violates the Cairo agreement, we might see further attacks on its nuclear facilities, at little to no cost to the attackers.

[Ali Alkis @AliAlkisTR]

During the 69th #IAEAGC, @rafaelmgrossi says IAEA meets the challenge, posed by armed attacks against nuclear facilities.

I am personally impressed by the DG’s speech, as he does not use notes or a prompter but instead speaks sincerely.
