In this episode of Arms Control Primer, Dr Alexander Bollfrass speaks with Dr Leonardo Bandarra and Professor Carlo Patti about Brazil’s nuclear history, from early ambitions and the military-era parallel programme to cooperation with Argentina, the creation of ABACC and Brazil’s eventual accession to the NPT. They explore what Brazil’s case reveals about autonomy, secrecy, safeguards and the wider challenges of the global nuclear order.
