Ankit Panda's new book delivers a stark message: we've entered a new nuclear age. This one is shaped by rising U.S.–Russia tensions, China's emergence as a major nuclear power, and a wave of tech breakthroughs — including AI — that are transforming the nuclear landscape. The result? A world where nuclear security is more complicated, and more dangerous, than ever.
In The New Nuclear Age: At the Precipice of Armageddon, Panda breaks down the key trends driving this shift. In our conversation, he explains why this moment is so perilous — and how we might avoid stumbling into a new nuclear war.
We recorded this live at the Carnegie International Nuclear Policy Conference. More conversations are coming soon.
