It widely known that they have them, but they refuse to say how many or agree to nonproliferation. Their nuclear program is why JFK was assassinated.

The reason they will not acknowledge it is because they do and the US is violating its own laws still supporting them.

*current U.S. nonproliferation laws already bar aid to countries that possess nuclear weapons without formally acknowledging them

The UN appointed a Russian to lead the office for landmine removal. Makes sense, since they placed so many landmines in Ukraine.🙄

What's next? North Korea leading nonproliferation? The Taliban leading human rights?

Or maybe Trump leading women's rights?

Absolutely ridiculous.

I don't really understand the people thinking an AI pause/slow is impossible, nuclear nonproliferation and slowdowns have a lot of precedent and you can't just measure those as power in (observing power plants, petroeum reserves, etc) vs heat out (measured by satellite, also catches NPP power level)

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Marco Rubio:

I don't know if negotiated peace is achievable in Ukraine. That's what we're trying to find out.

I don't think anyone here is claiming that we are on the verge of a negotiated settlement.

Russia possesses a large number of nuclear weapons. Perhaps people don't remember that.

For the nerds, Israel is not a member of the NPT. But the TPNW exists and represents a massive body of state opinion that such threats are illegal and immoral. Nuclear use will drive a massive new wave of proliferation and destroy the nonproliferation regime.

Terrifying rumors are swirling about Israel pressuring Trump to launch a nuclear strike on Iran immediately after the midterms or some other major escalation. I wish I was sure that this was too unhinged to take seriously, but we do not live in sane times where these kinds of dismissals are possible

[some-subscribed-rss] New Post: 20 Major National Security Achievements Under the Trump Administration, by Energy.gov https://www.energy.gov/nnsa/articles/20-major-national-security-achievements-under-trump-administration
Teaser: Under the Trump administration, the NNSA has notched 20 major national security achievements, from modernizing nuclear warheads and ramping up production to counterterrorism and nonproliferation. The article details milestones like delivering warhead components ahead of schedule and removing dangerous nuclear materials from multiple countries, but it’s more than a list—it’s a look at how the Nuclear Security Enterprise is rebuilding infrastructure and capacity to support “Peace Through Strength.” Read on to see the full scope of these accomplishments and what they mean for America’s deterrent. teaser for https://www.energy.gov/nnsa/articles/20-major-national-security-achievements-under-trump-administration generated by deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash

The American “justice” system isn’t designed to successfully prosecute billionaire criminals.
They’ve stolen billions.
Better to just let the Iranians take them and do as they please in exchange for signing a nuclear nonproliferation agreement and permanently opening the Strait of Hormuz.

Military action against Iran's nuclear program may set back timelines, but it does not erase decades of technical expertise or political motivation. Sustainable nonproliferation will require altering Tehran's strategic calculations, not just targeting its facilities.

Could LLMs make chemical attacks easier to carry out? Ryan Stendall, Freddie Martin, & Jonas Sandbrink examine how AI may lower barriers to chemical weapons misuse & remaining obstacles.

Free access until the end of October in our AI-WMD special issue!

doi.org/10.1080/1073...
This is the abstract for the Nonproliferation Review article "How might large language models aid actors in reaching the competency threshold required to carry out a chemical attack?" by Stendall, Martin, and Sandbrink. It is available in full at the link in the post. The abstract reads: Artificial intelligence is a rapidly growing field, increasingly driving innovation in the sciences. This is a double-edged sword, with the benefits of scientific discovery tempered by potential opportunities for weaponization and misuse. Specifically, the implications for chemical security and chemical weapons are becoming increasingly clear. This article analyzes how large language models (LLMs)—particularly chatbots and chemical LLM assistants—might enable actors to better reach the competency threshold for a chemical attack, via enhanced methods for the identification, production, and use of chemical weapons. This would be particularly relevant for those at the lower end of the capability spectrum, such as terrorist groups and rogue individuals. An important historical context is provided throughout the article, with chemical attacks of the past illuminating the dangerous consequences of an easier-to-achieve competency threshold. A counterargument is also provided, analyzing the factors that might still limit malicious actors, as well as a description of how LLMs might be used to combat chemical terrorism. The article then concludes with a short list of key policy and governance suggestions for mitigating the risks.
