In the middle of June 2024, Russia signed a comprehensive mutual partnership agreement with North Korea.
As Russia's relations with the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea grow in light of Moscow's isolation from the Western-centric world, how will the global nuclear non-proliferation regime be affected?
For this episode, I sat down with Professor Peter Kuznick, the Director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University. Dr. Kuznick and I discussed the implications of Russia's new alliance with North Korea, the escalating NATO-Russia tensions over Ukraine, and the potential for a nuclear showdown.
We also discussed the Taiwan Strait crisis and how Washington's policies in the South China Sea could turn Taiwan into another Ukraine as China feels its claims on the island are undermined. The professor and I also explored why the current nuclear non-proliferation regime in the world has failed.
Kuznick ends by providing the next generation of leaders with his advice for how they should run the world they will inherit from their predecessors when they come to positions of power and influence.
