Russia's use of tactical nuclear weapons could trigger a cataclysmic nuclear exchange.

The failure of the NPT Review Conference reflects that the TPNW states need to acquire more international support.

The Democratic Party is unquestioningly supporting an endless proxy war and has been reluctant to press President Biden to prioritize a negotiated settlement to the war.

War, nuclear annihilation, climate chaos, pandemics, and devastating economic and social inequalities make for extremely tumultuous and dangerous times. But we have the resources and solutions to resolve each of them.

Ukrainian and Russian lives will continue to be shattered until either a ceasefire or completion of successful negotiations are announced.

There is no sign yet of Chinese coordination with Moscow over Ukraine or preparations for an invasion of Taiwan.

Another world, at least another, more peaceful and just Europe—with very reasonable agreements for Russian security—is possible.

This is a moment to be pressing President Biden and those around him to embrace a no first strike doctrine, for Congress to defund the land-based ICBMs and other nuclear first strike weapons, to initiate negotiation of an Asia-Pacific Freeze to halt the suicidal arms race.
