The US is willing to discuss China's proposal for a no-first-use of nuclear weapons agreement but has lots of questions about it, Asst. Secstate Stewart tells Arms Control Today in an interview. 1/3 armscontrol.org/act/2024-05/in…

So grateful to my incredibly insightful colleagues. This forum is the single best introduction to the last ten years of my work. Thank you Brian Hochman, Suzanne Piotrowski, Krista Ferrante, Heidi Kitrosser, John Krige, and Aviel Roshwald.

Minot says all 14 B-52s managed to get airborne within 30 minutes.

Guess bombers are special.

It’s not easy to be optimistic about nuclear arms control and disarmament these days. But things can change quickly in international politics—and not always for the worse. Crucial to stand ready with solutions should a window of opportunity open.
