30] – On Wed., July 27 at 9 AM ET, check out The Future of
Arms Control, Strategic Stability and the Global Order [Virtual]. As countries prepare for the Treaty on the
Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) Review Conference next month,
increased competition between regional and global powers, the pace of
technological development and the collapse of long-standing agreements present
more challenges to arms control and global strategic order than ever before. In
this increasing vacuum, the potential for misunderstanding and miscalculation
grows. Hear from the UK’s National Security Adviser, Sir Stephen Lovegrove, who
will offer a UK perspective on the current climate and advocate for a new set
of principles for the future of arms control and resetting strategic stability
for the new international order. The sponsor of the event is the Center for
Strategic & International Studies (CSIS). RSVP at https://www.csis.org/events/future-arms-control-strategic-stability-and-global-order.
31] – On Wed., July 27 from noon to 1 PM ET, tune in to Future Foreign Policy: A New Nuclear Era? Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine started with a warning against Western intervention: they would face “consequences such as you have never seen in your entire history.” As he has repeated his nuclear threats over the last three months, numerous commentators have begun to wonder if it is the beginning of a new era of heighted nuclear risks. Headlines read: “Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has eroded the nuclear taboo” (The Economist); “Putin’s Threats Highlight the Dangers of a New, Riskier Nuclear Era” (The New York Times). Many wonder what lessons China may take away from Russia’s nuclear saber rattling. What lessons have US allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific learned? Are countries like Japan and South Korea more likely to seek nuclear weapons for themselves? This event is sponsored by the New American Engagement Initiative, Atlantic Council. Register at https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/event/ffp-a-new-nuclear-era/.
