Nuclear Negotiations: Back to the Future?
by Ronald J. Bee
Nuclear weapons have not gone away, and the Trump administration has brought a new urgency, if not a new approach, to dealing with them. The President has met with Vladimir Putin as the New Start Treaty with Russia comes up for renewal in 2021, the first presidential summit ever with Kim Jong-un occurred to discuss denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula, and President Trump has decertified the Obama nuclear deal with Iran. To what degree should past nuclear talks guide future U.S. nuclear arms control negotiations? Can the art of the deal apply to stabilizing our nuclear future?
This program will be held in the Chapel at St. John’s UU Church, 320 Resor Ave., Clifton, from 12:45 – 2:15 p.m. Brown bag lunches are welcome to be eaten while we watch the DVD together before the discussion.
If you did not purchase a briefing book in the fall and would like to do the same background reading as many others in the group, you can order one from the Foreign Policy Association, www.fpa.org. If not, try to do some research on the topic before coming. No registration is necessary.
