SIPRI 30d ago

As part of a SIPRI talk on the 40th anniversary of the Chornobyl disaster and the Russian occupation of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, SIPRI invited Dr Mariana Budjeryn, Senior Researcher at MIT’s Security Studies Program’s Center for Nuclear Security Policy. In the discussion, she reflects on what the international community should have learned from Chornobyl, what needs to happen now, and which actors are still capable of managing the current nuclear security challenges. About Spotlight: The Spotlight series is a collection of short, on the spot interviews, captured on occasions where individuals have visited SIPRI for various events, seminars and workshops. The aim of the series is to capture an array of angles and viewpoints that will stimulate further discussions. While these are designed to offer snapshots, the intention is to provide starting points to contribute to continued dialogue to better understand the conditions for peaceful solutions of international conflicts and for a stable peace. https://www.sipri.org/​ Follow: https://twitter.com/SIPRIorg​ Like: https://www.facebook.com/sipri.org​ Connect: https://www.linkedin.com/company/sipri
