Critical Voices: Rule of Law and Nuclear Weapons

The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons strongly affirms international law that condemns and prohibits the threat or use of nuclear weapons. With 92 state signatories and 65 ratifications, an effort is underway to encourage states to sign and ratify with urgency. Almost a year since Russia invaded Ukraine, Russian President Putin’s references to his country’s nuclear capabilities revived an existential tension and led to considerable press coverage of the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962.

Join the Sorensen Center for a virtual "Critical Voices: From Local to Global” discussion featuring Ariana Smith '20, Executive Director of Lawyers Committee on Nuclear Policy and 2018 Sorensen Center Fellow; Seth Shelden, UN Liaison for the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons; and Hadeel Abu Ktaish, a Junior Fellow at the Center for International Policy.
