🚨New RUSI Whitehall Report, ‘A Transatlantic Approach to China in the Global Commons: Convergence and Divergence in Seas and Outer Space’ by @VeerleNouwens is out now!
The report explores transatlantic convergence and divergence over the governance of the global commons of the seas and outer space, and #China’s actions within it.
It explores how global commons are regulated and argues that debates around the governance of the maritime and outer space domains are more nuanced than adherence to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea or the Outer Space Treaty.
The report analyses how Europe, China and the US are engaging with the global commons and examines European and US concerns over Chinese activities.
North Korea’s #nuclear programme has been the most prominent capability of concern to the international community, but North Korea is also suspected to possess a chemical weapons programme.
There is a lack of detailed understanding and assessment of the status, scope, and scale of its chemical weapons programme, especially in the public domain.
This #IWD2022 , revisit some of our past events that explore the importance and benefits of diversity and inclusion.
Revisit our event (with @BAESystemsInc) that explores the importance of diversity in addressing the challenges and opportunities of the global cyber race.
Revisit our panel discussion that looked at the benefits of improving integration of underrepresented perspectives and experiences in the Non-Proliferation Treaty process and their value in implementing treaty commitments.
To celebrate #IWD2022, we reflect on some of the work that we have undertaken to highlight the impact of gender inequality on peace and security and to encourage continued progress towards equal inclusion of #women in policy and programming.
The development of the Women, Peace and Security #WPS agenda in the international peace and security community has highlighted the need to include more #women.
As Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine continues, our International Security Studies (@ISS_RUSI) research team highlights some of the short, medium and long term implications of this crisis.
In the short term, the impact of the Russian Orthodox Church's opposition to the war may have implications for President Putin.
In the medium term, attention should be paid to the ability of Russia's Railway Troops to ferry supplies to the front line.
The report reveals how developments in science and technology will simplify efforts by hostile actors to operate small-scale chemical and #biologicalweapons production.
General emphasis in arms control and non-proliferation debates has focused on the threat of chemical & biological materials as weapons of warfare, but the threat of such materials being used in situations other than war, such as #terrorist attacks & assassinations, is now clear.
At the 2021 @UKPONI annual conference, emerging experts from the #nuclear industry, academia, government and the military gave presentations on a range of timely civil and military nuclear issues.
The emerging experts who presented at the conference have adapted their presentations for the 2021 UK PONI Papers, which are now live on our website.
