On today's special episode of Battle Lines we speak to International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Grossi. As China rapidly expands its nuclear arsenal and Iran inches closer to a bomb than ever before, Raphael Grossi is possibly the individual most responsible for holding it together. We asked him how dangerous this moment really is, how scared we should be and what, if anything, we can do about it.

    Why is all the concern about nuclear weapons ? - what about chemical and biological ? They are much more widely available, easier to use and maybe more devastating, as we have seen with COVID. If chemical and biological weapons are used on a large scale, then, we should be worried about nuclear weapons.

  • The Ukrainian Foreign Minister confirms his country's readiness for peace talks with Russia if Moscow is ready to negotiate

    Correction: how close is the inept west to nuclear war?
  • @yellowtomato
    The Russian army has lost most of their conventional capabilities, people and equipment. The time for a nuclear weapon was the start of the war, not this many years in..
  • @maggsvamp
    This should not even be something being talked about.
  • I pray for peace in Ukraine and Uk. Russia using weapons is the most dumbest thing they've ever done since the invasion of Ukraine. I pray that God will protect them. God is in control to prevent this.
  • The West is not suicidal and the East is not suicidal. So no nuclear wars.
