Members of the NEVER network convened on Wednesday, the first of November, 2023, for a discussion of the existential risks stemming from biological risks, with presentations from ELN Senior Network member, Angela Kane, and NEVER member, Rebecca Donaldson.
In our latest commentary from the ELN’s New European Voices on Existential Risk (NEVER) network, Shane Ward and Eva Siegmann, explore how the emergence of non-nuclear strategic threats (NNST) has undermined the normative taboo surrounding the use of nuclear weapons, and why new methods extending beyond deterrence are needed to ensure international stability.
Former and serving senior officials, military leaders, and experts from across the Euro-Atlantic region call on all nuclear arms states to reduce the risk of nuclear blunder, and to cooperate to eliminate nuclear risks and threats.
